Availability
Nick Yorke went 1-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in the Pirates' 9-4 victory over the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact
His performance was highlighted by a significant home run that helped extend the Pirates' lead, contributing heavily to the team's win. Despite a season batting average of .229 through 10 games, this game could be a sign of Yorke finding his rhythm at the plate. His power potential is evident with two homers early in his season, but his high strikeout rate and low walk rate suggest there's still much room for improvement in his approach at the plate. Fantasy managers should monitor Yorke's performance closely, as increased consistency could make him a valuable asset, especially in deeper leagues.
Nick Yorke is in the starting lineup for the Pirates Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Yorke will start at second base and bat eighth against the Reds. He is hitting .333, with one RBI, and two stolen bases this season.
Nick Yorke went 0-for-3 in the Pirates' 4-0 loss to the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a lackluster offensive performance, Yorke managed to swipe a base. This game, marking his first of the season, didn't exactly set the stage for high expectations, as his batting line remains at .000 with no hits or walks to speak of. The stolen base might be a small silver lining for fantasy managers looking for speed, but Yorke will need to significantly improve at the plate to become a viable fantasy option. His current performance metrics, including a .000 wOBA and BABIP, highlight the need for adjustments and more consistent contact if he's to contribute positively to fantasy rosters.
Nick Yorke was placed on the injured list at High-A Greenville with turf toe.
Fantasy Impact
Yorke has not played in a week. The team is hopeful that he will just be out the rest of the week. He is hitting .245 so far this season with High-A Greenville.
The Red Sox promoted 2B prospect Nick Yorke to High-A Greenville.
Fantasy Impact
Yorke was an extremely surprising first-round pick by Boston in the 2020 draft. However, he has been on an absolute tear following a slow start at the plate. Since June 1st, Yorke is hitting .373/.467/.608 with 33 walks and 26 strikeouts. He should be on your radar in deeper dynasty leagues.
