Marcus Semien

Marcus Semien went 3-for-5 with a home run and two runs scored in the Rangers' 5-2 victory over the Angels.

Fantasy Impact

His performance included driving in a run and striking out once. This outing, marked by his 23rd homer of the season, provides a slight boost to his .236 batting average and contributes to his season RBI total, now standing at 74. While Semien's power numbers are respectable, his overall batting metrics this season, including a .303 wOBA and .250 BABIP, suggest that he remains a middle-tier fantasy option.

Marcus Semien went 1-for-5 in the Rangers' 8-4 loss to the Mariners, adding a stolen base to his efforts.

Fantasy Impact

Despite managing to swipe a base, Semien's overall impact was minimal in a game where the Rangers could have used more offensive firepower. His season batting average now sits at a modest .232, and while he has contributed 22 homers and 72 RBI over 152 games, his inconsistency at the plate continues to frustrate fantasy managers. The stolen base was a rare addition, bringing his season total to seven, but it's clear that Semien's fantasy value is primarily dependent on his power numbers, which have been sporadic. Owners should temper expectations, as his current form suggests limited upside beyond the occasional power surge.

Fantasy Impact

His two-run blast contributed to his season total, bringing his home run count to 22. Despite the loss, Semien's power continues to be a bright spot in an otherwise mediocre batting average season. His .238 average and .306 wOBA suggest limited overall impact in fantasy outside of power categories. Owners should value him for his consistent run production and moderate power but be wary of the batting average drag.

Marcus Semien went 2-for-4 in the Rangers' 5-4 win over the Mariners, including a home run and one RBI.

Fantasy Impact

His performance today, punctuated by his 21st homer of the season, provided a much-needed boost to the Rangers' lineup. Despite a batting average of .239 this season, Semien's ability to contribute key hits has kept his fantasy relevance afloat, especially in leagues that value power from the middle infield positions. His consistent run production, now at 91 for the season, along with a modest mix of home runs and doubles, makes him a viable option for fantasy managers in need of infield depth. However, his relatively high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest potential volatility in his performance, so managers should remain cautious.

Marcus Semien went 2-for-5 in the Rangers' heavy 14-4 loss to the Diamondbacks, including a home run, two runs scored, and two RBI.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the team's struggles, Semien's power stroke was on display as he added his 20th homer of the season. His batting average remains a modest .238 through 143 games, and while his power numbers are respectable, his overall production has been somewhat inconsistent. Fantasy managers should appreciate the home runs and RBI but remain wary of the low batting average and modest on-base skills, as evidenced by his .304 wOBA and .253 BABIP. Semien's ability to contribute in multiple categories keeps him relevant, but expectations should be tempered given the overall hitting metrics.
