Travis d'Arnaud Powers Braves Past Giants
by Emily Maingi | Braves Correspondent | Wed, Aug 14th 12:09pm EDT
Travis d'Arnaud went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in the Braves' 4-3 victory over the Giants.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance included a crucial home run that contributed significantly to the team's win. This season, d'Arnaud has maintained a .255 batting average and his power numbers are respectable with 13 homers and 40 RBI through 78 games. His strikeout rate remains a concern at 23%, but his ability to drive in runs and hit for power keeps him relevant in fantasy leagues, especially in formats that value power-hitting catchers. His wOBA of .338 indicates he's been an above-average contributor when making contact, though his relatively low BABIP of .282 suggests some bad luck, possibly indicating room for improvement in his batting average as the season progresses.
