Fantasy Impact

Despite the team's struggles, Call's solo shot was a small silver lining in an otherwise disappointing game. Maintaining a robust .361 batting average over 25 games this season, Call continues to make a case for increased fantasy relevance, especially in deeper leagues or as a streaming option against favorable matchups. His power numbers aren't overwhelming, but his ability to get on base and score runs, coupled with a high BABIP, suggests he could sustain a higher-than-average batting average, making him a valuable asset in batting average or on-base percentage leagues.

Alex Call went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored as the Nationals edged out the Angels 3-2.

Fantasy Impact

Call's performance continues to bolster his impressive season, where he's now batting .415 through 18 games. His consistent contact hitting, evidenced by his low strikeout rate and high BABIP, makes him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups, especially in formats that reward batting average and on-base percentage. While the lack of power numbers slightly caps his ceiling, his ability to get on base and score runs should keep him relevant in most fantasy formats.
