Santander Homers, But Orioles Fall to Red Sox
by Jesse Garcia | Orioles Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 8:05am EDT
Anthony Santander went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Orioles' 5-3 loss to the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's defeat, Santander's solo shot adds to a season where he's now tallied 41 homers, underscoring his power-hitting capabilities. His current .242 batting average and .350 wOBA suggest a mix of solid power but average on-base skills, which aligns with his role as a middle-of-the-order threat for Baltimore. Fantasy managers should continue to value Santander for his home run potential, though his high strikeout rate and relatively low BABIP indicate some volatility in his batting average. His consistent power numbers, however, make him a valuable asset in most fantasy formats.
