Paul Goldschmidt homers, but Cardinals fall to Royals
by Chris Schommer | Cardinals Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 8:15am EDT
Paul Goldschmidt went 1-for-2 with a home run, a walk, and two RBI in the Cardinals' 8-3 loss to the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's struggles, Goldschmidt managed to contribute by driving in and scoring a run. His season has been a bit rocky, with a batting average of just .232 over 113 games, but his power numbers remain respectable with 18 homers. His wOBA stands at .298, indicating some effectiveness at the plate, though his high strikeout rate of 28% continues to be a concern. Fantasy managers should view Goldschmidt as a potential source of power and RBI, but be wary of the batting average and strikeout liability.
