Starling Marte homers in win over Giants

The Pirates got hits from just two players on Saturday, but it was enough for a 3-2 win over the Giants. Starling Marte got two of those hits, including his 15th home run of the season. He is now batting .290 for the season.

Fantasy Impact:

Marte has hit safely in his last seven games. He's on pace to hit over 30 doubles, 20 home runs and steal 30 bases. The only negative to Marte's game is that he draws very few walks, only 21 so far this season. Having said that, he's a very good fantasy option for the stretch run.
