Luke Raley Homers in Mariners' Loss to Padres
by Jesse Garcia | Mariners Correspondent | Wed, Sep 11th 8:06am EDT
Luke Raley went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Mariners' 7-3 defeat to the Padres.
Fantasy Impact:
His solo shot contributed to his season totals, bringing him to 19 home runs and 50 RBI through 122 games. Despite the loss, Raley's power numbers have been a bright spot in an otherwise middling season marked by a .242 batting average and high strikeout rate (30%). His ability to draw walks and occasional power surges provide some value in deeper fantasy leagues, but his high strikeout rate and inconsistent batting average limit his appeal in shallower formats or those heavily penalizing strikeouts.
