Eligibility
Luis Garcia went 1-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in the Nationals' 6-1 victory over the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact
His performance was highlighted by a crucial home run that helped extend the Nationals' lead. With this game, Garcia's season totals have improved to a .279 batting average with five homers and 26 RBI. His consistent ability to drive in runs, coupled with a decent batting average, makes him a valuable asset in most fantasy formats. However, his moderate strikeout rate and low walk rate suggest a need for caution, as these could limit his on-base opportunities. Garcia's power numbers are respectable for a second baseman, and if he can maintain or improve his consistency at the plate, he should remain a solid option in fantasy lineups.
