Nicky Lopez shines in crosstown clash
by Chris Schommer | White Sox Correspondent | Sat, Aug 10th 9:54am EDT
Nicky Lopez went 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI in the White Sox's narrow 7-6 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's defeat, Lopez's performance was a bright spot, showcasing his ability to hit for contact and contribute to run production. This game marked a slight uptick in his otherwise modest season, where he's batting .243 with only 16 RBI over 95 games. His consistent contact ability, evidenced by a low strikeout rate and a BABIP of .290, suggests potential for more multi-hit games if he can find more consistency at the plate. However, fantasy managers should temper expectations, as his lack of power and limited run production cap his upside in most formats.
