Lane Thomas Powers Guardians Past Cardinals
by Chris Schommer | Guardians Correspondent | Sat, Sep 21st 11:55am EDT
Lane Thomas went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Guardians' 5-1 victory over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact:
His solo shot contributed to the team's win, but his overall season performance paints a picture of inconsistency. With a batting average of .241 and a wOBA of .309 over 124 games, Thomas's fantasy value has been largely dependent on his power and speed, evidenced by his 14 homers and 32 stolen bases. However, his high strikeout rate continues to be a concern, limiting his on-base opportunities despite a decent walk rate of 8.5%. Fantasy managers should view Thomas as a situational player, best utilized when matchups favor his power-speed combination.
