Spencer Torkelson Homers, but Tigers Fall to Cubs
by Chase Davis | Tigers Correspondent | Fri, Aug 23rd 8:29am EDT
Spencer Torkelson went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in the Tigers' 10-2 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance included a walk and he scored once. Despite the loss, Torkelson's home run adds a slight boost to his struggling season stats, which show a .217 batting average and only five homers over 59 games. His power potential remains evident, but his high strikeout rate and low batting average continue to limit his fantasy appeal. Owners should monitor if this game sparks any form of consistency at the plate, which could make him a more reliable option in deeper leagues. Since he was recalled from the minors, Torkelson is batting .412 with a homer, three runs scored and two RBI in five games.
