Dansby Swanson's slump continues despite Cubs' victory
by Chris Schommer | Cubs Correspondent | Sat, Aug 17th 7:20am EDT
Dansby Swanson went 0-for-3 in the Cubs' narrow 6-5 win over the Blue Jays, managing only a walk and a stolen base.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance is a continuation of Swanson's troubling trend this season, marked by a .228 batting average and underwhelming power numbers. His on-base skills are not compensating enough for the lack of hits, as evidenced by a low .284 wOBA and a concerning strikeout rate of 25.1%. While the stolen base might offer a slight silver lining for fantasy managers in need of speed, Swanson's overall production remains too erratic to consider him a reliable starting option in most formats. His current slump does little to boost confidence in his fantasy stock as the season progresses.
