Lawrence Butler showcased his power in a thrilling game, going 3-for-4 with three home runs and four RBI in the Athletics' narrow 10-9 defeat to the Reds.
Fantasy Impact:
This explosive performance highlights Butler's potential as a power threat in fantasy lineups, especially considering his tally of 19 homers this season. Despite a modest .255 average and high strikeout rate, his ability to change the game with one swing makes him a valuable asset in leagues that reward power numbers. Fantasy managers should note his inconsistency, but today's game is a reminder of the high ceiling Butler possesses when he connects.
