Alex Verdugo's Solo Shot Highlights Yankees' Rout
by Chase Davis | Yankees Correspondent | Fri, Sep 27th 8:00am EDT
Alex Verdugo went 1-for-1 with a home run and an RBI in the Yankees' dominant 10-1 victory over the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, though limited in opportunities, showcased his power potential, which has been sporadic throughout the season. Verdugo's season-long batting average sits at a modest .234, and with only 13 homers over 147 games, his power numbers aren't turning heads. However, his ability to connect and drive the ball, as seen in this game, keeps him relevant in fantasy formats that value extra-base hits. Owners should temper expectations, though, as his overall production metrics, including a .285 wOBA and .254 BABIP, suggest limited upside without significant adjustments at the plate.
