Anthony Rizzo smashes ninth home run Friday night

Anthony Rizzo took Kris Bubic deep in the first inning of the Yankees' 12-2 win over the Royals on Friday night.

Fantasy Impact:

The first baseman didn't need the short porch at Yankees Stadium for this one as it soared 415 feet with an exit velocity of 100.6 mph. Rizzo isn't going to maintain an OPS of 1.094 for the remainder of the season, but he has always been a consistent hitter who boosts ratios for fantasy teams. When he is playing at home, he is a must start and worth a spot in DFS as well.
