Stuart Fairchild powers up in Reds' loss
by Chris Schommer | Reds Correspondent | Sat, Aug 10th 7:50am EDT
Stuart Fairchild went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in the Reds' 8-3 defeat to the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's loss, Fairchild's two-run shot contributed to his season tally, bringing his home run count to eight. His performance this season has been underwhelming with a .222 batting average, indicating limited offensive impact. Fantasy managers should view Fairchild as a fringe option, primarily useful in deeper leagues or as a fill-in player due to his power potential and ability to chip in with occasional stolen bases. His strikeout rate remains a concern, potentially capping his upside in batting average and on-base percentage.
