Bryce Harper went 3-for-4 with two doubles in the Phillies' 7-2 loss to the Braves.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's struggles, Harper's personal performance was a bright spot, showcasing his ability to hit for extra bases. This game nudged his season batting average slightly upwards, maintaining his solid .282 mark. His consistent power hitting, evidenced by his 33 doubles and 26 home runs this season, continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups. However, his lack of runs and RBIs in this game reflects the Phillies' overall offensive woes, which could limit his scoring opportunities. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on the team's performance as a whole, as it heavily influences Harper's potential to rack up fantasy points.
