by Chris Schommer | Yankees Correspondent | Sun, Sep 1st 7:17am EDT
Giancarlo Stanton went 1-for-1 with a double and three RBI in the Yankees' 6-5 loss to the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the limited opportunities at the plate, Stanton made his presence felt by driving in three runs, showcasing his ability to deliver in clutch situations. His season has been a mixed bag, marked by a modest .241 batting average and a high strikeout rate of 30.1%. However, his power numbers remain respectable with 23 homers and 60 RBI over 93 games. Fantasy managers should continue to value Stanton for his RBI and home run potential, though his batting average and strikeout rate may be a concern in batting average leagues. His performance in high-leverage situations, like today's game, underscores his value in formats that reward clutch hitting.
