Danny Jansen Homers, But Red Sox Fall to Yankees
by Chase Davis | Red Sox Correspondent | Fri, Sep 13th 8:35am EDT
Danny Jansen went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk in the Red Sox's 2-1 loss to the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's defeat, Jansen managed to contribute by sending one over the fence, marking his ninth homer of the season. This performance slightly lifts his rather modest .211 batting average and adds a bit to his RBI total, now standing at 24. While Jansen's power numbers are decent for a catcher, his overall offensive production has been lackluster this season, as evidenced by his subpar wOBA of .299. Fantasy managers should continue to view Jansen as a secondary option, primarily valuable in deeper leagues or two-catcher formats where power from the catcher spot can be scarce.
