Alex Bregman Powers Astros to Tight Victory Over Rays
by Emily Maingi | Astros Correspondent | Wed, Aug 14th 12:03pm EDT
Alex Bregman had a productive outing in Tuesday's narrow 3-2 win against the Rays, going 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, two runs scored, and an RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance underscores a season where Bregman has been a solid contributor but not spectacular, maintaining a .264 batting average with 19 homers and 59 RBI through 115 games. His ability to connect for extra-base hits, evidenced by his 25 doubles and a homer in this game, adds valuable slugging to fantasy rosters. However, his modest stolen base totals and walk rates suggest his value is primarily in leagues that favor power and batting metrics. Fantasy managers should view Bregman as a reliable, if not elite, option at third base, particularly in formats that reward extra-base hits and RBI.
