Goldschmidt steals base, hits HR in nightcap win

After going 0-for-5 with 4 strikeouts in the first game of the Diamondbacks' doubleheader sweep against the Rockies, Paul Goldschmidt contributed a solo HR, an RBI single and a stolen base in Arizona's 5-1 win in the 2nd game.

Fantasy Impact:

The 2-for-10 day with six total K's is not ideal, but when they are accompanied by a homer and a steal, it softens the blow considerably. The underrated fantasy impact of Goldschmidt's season so far is the six stolen bases through 26 games. He historically steals bases frequently for a first baseman, but right now he is stealing bases frequently for any position, ranking 7th in the National League.
