Josh Jung Powers Rangers to Narrow Victory
by Chase Davis | Rangers Correspondent | Fri, Sep 13th 8:33am EDT
Josh Jung went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Rangers' 5-4 win over the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
His solo shot contributed crucially to the tight victory, marking his seventh homer of the season. Despite a modest .276 batting average over 42 games, Jung's power potential remains evident, and his ability to deliver in clutch situations enhances his fantasy value. However, his high strikeout rate (25.6%) and low walk rate (4.1%) continue to be areas of concern, potentially limiting his upside in formats that penalize for strikeouts or reward for on-base percentage. Fantasy managers should consider Jung a viable option for power numbers, though his overall impact may be tempered by his contact issues.
