Jake Burger Homers in Marlins' Heavy Loss
by Chase Davis | Marlins Correspondent | Fri, Sep 20th 8:54am EDT
Jake Burger went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Marlins' 20-4 defeat to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's rough outing, Burger managed to add a solo shot to his season tally, marking his 27th homer of the year. While his .243 batting average and high strikeout rate (26.3%) might deter some fantasy managers, his power numbers are solid, especially for a third baseman. Given his consistent home run production, Burger remains a viable fantasy option in leagues that favor power stats, though his low batting average and on-base percentages (.320 wOBA) could be a drag in more balanced formats.
