**Pete Alonso Powers Mets Past Phillies**
by Chase Davis | Mets Correspondent | Fri, May 17th 8:27am EDT
Pete Alonso went 1-for-4 in the Mets' 6-5 victory over the Phillies with a home run, two runs scored, one RBI, a walk, and a strikeout.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, highlighted by his 10th homer of the season, offers a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers who have been grappling with his underwhelming .226 batting average. Despite the low average, Alonso's power numbers remain respectable, with 23 RBI and 27 runs scored over 43 games. His ability to draw walks, evidenced by his 0.092 walk rate, also adds some value in formats that reward on-base percentage. However, his high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest that while he can provide sporadic bursts of power, consistency might continue to elude him. Fantasy managers should keep expectations in check but recognize his potential for impactful games.
