Pete Alonso swings hard in Mets' narrow loss

Pete Alonso went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in the Mets' 8-7 loss to the Giants.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's defeat, Alonso's performance, including his 12th homer of the season, provided a silver lining. His season batting average remains modest at .240, and while his power numbers are respectable, his overall production has been somewhat inconsistent, as reflected by his .336 wOBA and .245 BABIP. Fantasy managers should continue to value Alonso for his home run potential, but should also be wary of the fluctuations in his batting average and on-base skills. His power is a critical asset, yet his strikeout rate could be a concern for those in points leagues where strikeouts are penalized.
