Jansen Homers, But Red Sox Fall to Royals

by Jesse Garcia | Red Sox Correspondent | Thu, Aug 8th 8:19am EDT

Danny Jansen went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the Red Sox's 8-4 loss to the Royals.

Fantasy Impact:

This performance, while a bright spot, underscores a season that's been less than stellar for Jansen. With a batting average lingering around .226 and only his seventh homer of the year, his fantasy value remains limited to deeper leagues or those in dire need of a catcher. His .308 wOBA and .250 BABIP suggest some bad luck, but not enough to expect a significant turnaround. Fantasy managers should consider Jansen a backup option, relying on him primarily for occasional power contributions rather than consistent offensive production.
