Jake Cave shines in Rockies' dominant win over Yankees
by Chris Schommer | Rockies Correspondent | Sun, Aug 25th 5:56am EDT
Jake Cave went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double, two runs scored, and three RBI in the Rockies' 9-2 victory over the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance is a bright spot in what has been a somewhat average season for Cave, lifting his batting average and providing a significant boost to his RBI total. Despite his .262 average and modest power numbers this season, games like this showcase his potential to contribute significantly in multiple categories. Fantasy managers should note, however, that his high strikeout rate and low walk rate limit his on-base potential, making him a volatile option dependent on maintaining a decent BABIP. Cave's ability to deliver in clutch situations could make him a useful, if not entirely reliable, fantasy asset in deeper leagues.
