Xander Bogaerts Swipes Base, But Padres Need More
by Matthew Adam | Padres Correspondent | Tue, Sep 17th 5:43am EDT
Xander Bogaerts went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in the Padres' 3-1 victory over the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
While the stolen base added a bit of value, Bogaerts's overall impact was muted by his lack of production in other categories, notably failing to contribute in runs or RBIs and striking out twice. His season batting average sits at .260, and while he's reached double digits in home runs and stolen bases, his modest RBI total and wOBA suggest he's not quite delivering the fantasy punch managers might have hoped for from a middle infielder. His consistent playing time and ability to contribute across several categories keep him relevant, but fantasy managers might want to temper expectations given his current trajectory.
