Jake Burger powers up in Marlins' loss
by Chris Schommer | Marlins Correspondent | Sat, Aug 10th 8:22am EDT
Jake Burger went 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Marlins' 6-2 defeat to the Padres.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance, highlighted by his 20th homer of the season, provided a silver lining in an otherwise disappointing game for Miami. Despite the loss, Burger's power display continues to be a crucial element for fantasy managers, especially in formats that value home runs and RBIs. His batting average remains modest at .240, and his high strikeout rate could be a concern for batting average leagues. However, his consistent power numbers and RBI production make him a viable option in most fantasy formats, particularly in deeper leagues or as a corner infield option.
