Jake Bauers powers Brewers past Athletics
by Chris Schommer | Brewers Correspondent | Sun, Aug 25th 7:10am EDT
Jake Bauers went 1-for-3 with a home run, three runs scored, and two RBI in the Brewers' 9-5 victory over the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
Bauers's performance, highlighted by his power display, provided a much-needed boost to his struggling batting average, now sitting at .205 for the season. Despite the low average, his ability to draw walks and hit for power, as evidenced by his 11 home runs and .311 wOBA, keeps him relevant in deeper fantasy formats. However, his high strikeout rate continues to be a concern, limiting his upside in batting average-dependent leagues. Bauers's mixed contributions suggest he remains a speculative play, primarily valuable in leagues that reward power and patience at the plate.
