Jake Cave Powers Rockies to Narrow Victory
by Jesse Garcia | Rockies Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 7:45pm EDT
Jake Cave went 1-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in the Rockies' 9-8 win over the Braves.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance, highlighted by a crucial home run, played a key role in the Rockies' narrow victory. Despite a modest .251 batting average this season, Cave's ability to drive in runs has been evident with his total RBI count reaching 31. His power numbers aren't overwhelming, but moments like these show he can be a difference-maker in clutch situations. Fantasy managers should view Cave as a situational player whose value spikes in matchups that favor his left-handed power. His low walk rate and high strikeout rate limit his appeal in formats that penalize for strikeouts, but he can provide sporadic home run and RBI contributions.
