Max Schuemann Sparks Athletics in Tight Victory
by Jesse Garcia | Athletics Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 8:15am EDT
Max Schuemann went 2-for-3 in the Athletics' narrow 5-4 win over the Astros, contributing a double, scoring twice, and stealing two bases.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, while solid, underscores his season-long struggle with a modest .224 batting average and an elevated strikeout rate of 25.7%. However, his ability to swipe bases, as evidenced by his two steals in this game, adds a valuable dimension to fantasy rosters in need of speed. Schuemann's on-base skills, highlighted by his walk in this contest and a .107 walk rate for the season, suggest potential for improvement in run-scoring opportunities, making him a speculative add in deeper fantasy formats where stolen bases are at a premium.
