Matt Olson has quiet day at the plate in Braves' loss

Matt Olson went 2-for-3 with a walk in the Braves' 9-5 defeat to the Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the loss, Olson managed to notch a couple of hits and score a run, though he didn't contribute any RBIs or extra-base hits. This performance is somewhat reflective of his season, marked by a .232 batting average and a significant strikeout rate. While his power numbers are decent with 25 homers, his overall production hasn't quite lived up to expectations. Olson's ability to draw walks, evidenced again in this game, keeps his on-base percentage at a respectable level, but fantasy managers might be growing weary of the low batting average and high strikeout totals. His consistent power does offer some value, but it's clear that any hopes for a batting title are long gone.
