Brent Rooker powers A's past Astros with key homer
by Emily Maingi | Athletics Correspondent | Wed, Jul 24th 10:58am EDT
Brent Rooker went 1-for-3 with a home run, a walk, two RBI, a run scored, and a stolen base in the Athletics' 8-2 victory over the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
Rooker's performance this season has been robust, boasting a .291 average and 23 homers through 88 games. His ability to combine power with a decent average and occasional speed adds a valuable dimension to fantasy rosters. With a solid .396 wOBA indicating his effectiveness at the plate, Rooker remains a strong fantasy option, especially in leagues that value power hitters. His high strikeout rate (.315) is a concern, but it's somewhat mitigated by his consistent run production and RBI totals.
