Matt Chapman Steals a Base In Loss
by Matthew Adam | Giants Correspondent | Tue, Jul 23rd 6:18am EDT
Matt Chapman went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in the Giants' 3-2 loss to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite reaching base via a walk and nabbing a stolen base, Chapman's inability to connect for a hit continues a concerning trend for the third baseman, whose season batting average sits at a modest .232. With 100 strikeouts to his name this season, his strikeout rate remains a significant drag on his fantasy value. However, his 25 doubles and 13 home runs show that he can contribute to power categories, though his overall production has been inconsistent. Fantasy managers should keep expectations in check, as his current form suggests limited upside in batting average and run production.
