Taylor Ward powers up in loss to Athletics

Taylor Ward went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Angels' 5-4 loss to the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the defeat, Ward's ability to drive in runs with his 15th homer of the season provided a silver lining. His current batting average sits at .226 with a .307 wOBA, indicating a struggle to consistently get on base, but his power numbers remain a redeeming factor for fantasy managers. With 47 RBI and 46 runs scored over 101 games, Ward offers some value in deeper fantasy leagues, primarily due to his occasional power surges. However, his high strikeout rate and low batting average could be a concern for those in average-driven leagues.
