by Chris Schommer | Sun, Sep 29th 7:01am EDT
Yasmani Grandal went 3-for-4 with a home run, three runs scored, and one RBI in the Pirates' 9-4 victory over the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, highlighted by his ninth homer of the season, provided a much-needed boost to his .228 batting average. Despite a challenging season where power has been sporadic, Grandal's ability to contribute significantly in key games keeps him relevant in fantasy circles, especially in leagues that value power from the catcher position. His wOBA of .307 suggests some level of offensive productivity, but fantasy managers should remain cautious due to his high strikeout rate and low BABIP, indicating potential for further struggles.
