by Chris Schommer | Rockies Correspondent | Sun, Sep 15th 9:56am EDT
Sam Hilliard made his lone at-bat count, delivering a home run and driving in two runs as the Rockies narrowly defeated the Cubs 6-5.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance today, though limited in opportunities, showcased his ability to impact the game with significant power. Hilliard's season has been a mixed bag with a .248 batting average and eight home runs over 48 games, indicating sporadic productivity. His high strikeout rate continues to be a concern, potentially limiting his chances for consistent playtime. Fantasy managers should view Hilliard as a situational player whose value spikes in matchups favorable to power hitters, but his inconsistency at the plate makes him a risky play in standard formats.
