LaMonte Wade Jr. shines despite Giants' narrow loss
by Chris Schommer | Giants Correspondent | Sat, Aug 24th 8:32am EDT
LaMonte Wade Jr. went 2-for-3 with a home run and a double in the Giants' 6-5 loss to the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
He also walked once, struck out once, drove in a run, and scored twice. Wade Jr.'s performance today was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing outcome for the Giants. His season batting average now sits at a respectable .281, and his ability to get on base, highlighted by a .358 wOBA and 51 walks, continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups. While his power numbers aren't overwhelming, today's home run, his fifth of the season, along with his consistent on-base skills, should keep him relevant in most fantasy formats.
