Matt Olson's power display leads Braves over Rockies

Matt Olson had a significant impact in the Braves' 11-8 victory over the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact:
Matt Olson went 2-for-4 with two home runs, two runs scored, six RBI, a walk, and a strikeout. This performance is a bright spot in what has been a somewhat underwhelming season for Olson, given his .230 batting average and high strikeout rate. However, his ability to drive in runs (now totaling 60 RBI) and hit long balls (20 homers on the season) keeps him relevant in fantasy lineups, especially in categories that reward power numbers. Olson's dual-homer game could signal a potential hot streak, making him a player to watch or a buy-low candidate if other managers are growing impatient.
