Marcus Semien Powers Rangers to Narrow Victory Over Mariners
by Chase Davis | Rangers Correspondent | Fri, Sep 13th 8:32am EDT
Marcus Semien went 2-for-4 in the Rangers' 5-4 win over the Mariners, including a home run and one RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance today, punctuated by his 21st homer of the season, provided a much-needed boost to the Rangers' lineup. Despite a batting average of .239 this season, Semien's ability to contribute key hits has kept his fantasy relevance afloat, especially in leagues that value power from the middle infield positions. His consistent run production, now at 91 for the season, along with a modest mix of home runs and doubles, makes him a viable option for fantasy managers in need of infield depth. However, his relatively high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest potential volatility in his performance, so managers should remain cautious.
