Ryan Howard went 1-for-4 in the Phillies 4-1 loss to the Washington Nationals on Sunday. He also struck out twice to increase his total to 15 in 40 at-bats this season. Howard has still yet to hit a home run or score a run.
Fantasy Impact
Howard is hitting just .175 with a .250 slugging percentage and a woeful .464 OPS. The day off on Monday may do Howard some good before the Phillies open a three-game series against the Miami Marlins on Tuesday.
