Dansby Swanson Swats Key Homer in Cubs' Rout of A's
by Matthew Adam | Cubs Correspondent | Tue, Sep 17th 6:10am EDT
Dansby Swanson went 2-for-5 with a home run and four RBI as the Cubs trounced the Athletics 9-2.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance featured a crucial home run that helped extend the Cubs' lead, contributing significantly to the team's victory. Despite a season batting average of just .237, Swanson's ability to drive in runs (now totaling 62 RBI) and his occasional power (15 homers) keep him relevant in fantasy formats, particularly those that value middle infielders with some pop. However, his high strikeout rate and relatively low batting average limit his appeal in average-focused leagues. Swanson's fantasy managers should continue to expect sporadic bursts of productivity like this, though consistency might remain elusive.
