Sean Murphy powers Braves past Phillies
by Chris Schommer | Braves Correspondent | Sat, Aug 31st 10:04am EDT
Sean Murphy went 1-for-2 with a home run and two RBI in the Braves' 7-2 victory over the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance included two walks and two runs scored, contributing significantly to the team's win. Despite a less-than-stellar season batting average of .219, Murphy's ability to draw walks and hit for power occasionally shines through, as evidenced by his eight home runs and .300 wOBA. Fantasy managers should view Murphy as a potential low-average, moderate-power option, particularly valuable in formats that reward walks or need depth at the catcher position. His performance in this game, while promising, should be seen as a bright spot in an otherwise mediocre season.
