by Chris Schommer | Dodgers Correspondent | Sat, Aug 17th 6:48am EDT
Gavin Lux went 2-for-4 in the Dodgers' narrow 7-6 victory over the Cardinals, contributing significantly with a home run, two runs scored, and an RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, highlighted by his eighth homer of the season, offers a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers who have been riding the waves of his .251 batting average. While Lux's power numbers are modest, his ability to contribute across multiple categories can't be ignored. The home run should provide a confidence boost, potentially signaling a more productive phase as he tries to improve on his relatively low wOBA. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Lux for signs of sustained improvement, but temper expectations given his overall performance this season.
