Starling Marte went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the Mets' 7-2 loss to the Giants.
Fantasy Impact
The outfielder's lone hit of the day left the yard, contributing his sixth homer of the season and his 19th RBI. Despite the power display, Marte's season has been a mixed bag, characterized by a modest .259 batting average and a concerning strikeout rate of 22.5%. While the home run might excite some fantasy managers, his overall production has been underwhelming given his previous standards. Marte's ability to mix in occasional power and speed is still valuable, but fantasy managers should temper expectations, considering his current performance trends.

Fantasy Impact
This performance included a walk and a run scored, showcasing Marte's ability to contribute across multiple categories. Despite the Mets' loss, Marte's outing was a bright spot and could signal a positive shift for fantasy managers. His season batting average now sits at .266, and while his power numbers aren't eye-popping, his ability to hit for average and score runs adds value in most formats. Given his consistent playtime and top-order batting position, Marte remains a viable fantasy option, especially in leagues that reward hits and runs.
