Willson Contreras shines in Cardinals' 6-1 victory

Willson Contreras went 3-for-5 with a double, a run scored, and a stolen base in the Cardinals' 6-1 win over the Twins.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance is a bright spot in what has been a fairly average season for Contreras, lifting his batting average slightly to .263. His ability to contribute across multiple categories in this game, particularly with his fourth stolen base, offers some hope for fantasy managers looking for versatility. However, his strikeout rate remains a concern, hovering around 27%, which could limit his upside. Moving forward, Contreras should be considered a solid option in leagues that value a combination of power and occasional speed from the catcher position.
