Mitch Haniger Homers in Mariners' Loss to Dodgers
by Jesse Garcia | Mariners Correspondent | Thu, Aug 22nd 7:15am EDT
Mitch Haniger went 1-for-1 with a home run and an RBI in the Mariners' 8-4 defeat to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the loss, Haniger managed to make his lone at-bat count by sending one over the fence, marking his 12th homer of the season. This performance is a small bright spot in what has been a challenging season for Haniger, who is batting just .211 through 106 games. His power numbers are decent, but his high strikeout rate and low batting average limit his fantasy appeal. Owners should view him as a potential power source, but his inconsistency at the plate makes him a risky play in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues.
