Yermin Mercedes went 2-for-6 with three RBI and a run scored during Saturday’s 15-2 win over the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact
Mercedes singled off Jose Urena in the top of the first inning to drive in Brian Goodwin and Yasmani Grandal. He tacked on another RBI single in the fifth frame. Mercedes has now collected multi-hit efforts in two of his last three games. The Yerminator is one of the biggest surprises in baseball in 2021, slashing .290/.348/.438 with seven home runs, 34 RBI, and 22 runs scored across 230 plate appearances in 2021.
