by Chris Schommer | Red Sox Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 6:57am EDT
Masataka Yoshida went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Red Sox's narrow 5-4 defeat to the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
His solo blast contributed to his season totals, bringing his home run count to seven and RBI tally to 38. Despite the loss, Yoshida's performance this season has been solid, maintaining a .279 batting average through 67 games. His consistent contact skills are evident, though his power numbers are modest. Fantasy managers should value his ability to contribute across multiple categories, although his lack of stolen bases limits his upside in formats that heavily reward speed.
