Matt Olson homers in Braves' shutout victory over Mets

Matt Olson had a mixed day at the plate during the Braves' 4-0 win over the Mets, going 1-for-4 with a solo home run.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite striking out twice, Olson's power stroke contributed significantly to the team's victory. This season, Olson's batting average sits at a modest .227, and while his power numbers are decent with 14 homers, his high strikeout rate of .274 continues to be a concern for fantasy managers. His wOBA of .304 suggests some effectiveness, but the lack of consistency makes him a risky play in fantasy lineups. Olson's ability to drive in runs (45 RBI in 103 games) still holds value, particularly in formats that reward power production, but managers should temper expectations given his current performance trends.
