Alex Kirilloff connects for a homer in Twins' narrow victory
by Chris Schommer | Twins Correspondent | Sat, May 25th 8:51am EDT
Alex Kirilloff went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Twins' 3-2 win over the Rangers.
Fantasy Impact:
His solo shot contributed crucially to the slim margin of victory. Despite this flash of power, Kirilloff's season has been underwhelming, with a batting average lingering around the Mendoza Line at .206 and modest power numbers including just four homers over 44 games. His .286 wOBA and .244 BABIP suggest he's struggled to make effective contact, and his high strikeout rate of 24.3% isn't helping matters. Fantasy managers should view performances like this as positive outliers rather than signs of a turnaround, unless he can string together more consistent production.
