TJ Friedl went 2-for-4 in the Reds' 9-2 victory over the Cardinals, delivering two home runs and driving in two runs.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance marked a significant highlight in what has been a challenging season for Friedl, as he struggles with a .233 batting average over 45 games. Despite the low average, his power display against the Cardinals showcases his potential upside, especially in leagues that value home runs and RBI. Friedl's season-long inconsistency and high strikeout rate might keep him off the radar in shallower fantasy leagues, but his ability to impact the game with power could make him a speculative add in deeper formats or as a streaming option when facing favorable matchups.
