David Peralta powers Padres past Rays with key homer
by Chris Schommer | Sat, Aug 31st 9:01am EDT
David Peralta went 2-for-3 in the Padres' 13-5 rout of the Rays, contributing a home run, two runs scored, and two RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance underscores Peralta's ability to provide occasional power and RBI from the outfield, aligning with his season-long trend of solid, albeit unspectacular, production. With a .278 batting average and seven homers over 74 games, he remains a viable option in deeper fantasy leagues, particularly against favorable matchups. His consistent contact and moderate power can help stabilize outfield slots in fantasy lineups, though his limited upside in speed and average walk rate suggests he's best utilized when the matchup is right.
