Francisco Cervelli hits first home run Wednesday
by Elliott Baas | Thu, Apr 11th 12:58am EDT
Francisco Cervelli went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in the Pirates' 5-2 win over the Cubs on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
The home run was Cervelli's first extra-base hit of the year, which isn't exactly what the Pirates want out of their cleanup hitter. Cervelli's best asset at the plate is his plate discipline, as he has a career 10.4% walk rate. He's best used in points and OBP leagues, but still a decent option, by catcher standards, in all formats.
