Francisco Alvarez Powers Mets to Victory Over Orioles
by Matthew Adam | Mets Correspondent | Tue, Aug 20th 6:25am EDT
Francisco Alvarez went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Mets' 4-3 win over the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
His solo shot contributed significantly to the narrow victory, showcasing his power potential from behind the plate. Despite a modest .253 batting average over 67 games this season, Alvarez's ability to deliver key hits like today's homer adds a valuable dimension to his fantasy profile. With a total of 6 home runs and 28 RBI, he remains a viable option for fantasy managers in need of a catcher who can provide occasional power. His walk and strikeout rates suggest room for improvement in plate discipline, but his performance today is a reminder of his upside in power categories.
