Julio Rodriguez speeds up, Mariners cruise past Cardinals
by Chris Schommer | Mariners Correspondent | Sat, Sep 7th 6:58am EDT
Julio Rodriguez went 3-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base in the Mariners' 6-1 victory over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, though lacking in power or RBIs, still showcases his ability to contribute across multiple categories, particularly with his speed and batting average. Despite a modest .262 average and 14 homers on the season, Rodriguez's 21 stolen bases highlight his value in categories that leverage his speed. His consistent ability to get on base and steal bases should keep him relevant in fantasy lineups, especially in roto leagues where every steal counts. However, his relatively high strikeout rate and low walk rate suggest some volatility in his performance, which fantasy managers should monitor.
