Danny Jansen homers in narrow loss to Astros

by Chris Schommer | Red Sox Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 6:58am EDT

Danny Jansen went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Red Sox's 5-4 defeat to the Astros.

Fantasy Impact:

His solo shot contributed to his season tally, bringing his home run count to eight and RBI total to 21. Despite the power display, Jansen's season has been underwhelming with a .227 batting average over 67 games. His power numbers are respectable for a catcher, but his overall production might not be enough to make him a must-start in all fantasy formats. Owners should consider Jansen a viable option in two-catcher leagues or as a streaming choice based on matchups.
