Four-game hitting streak for Paul Goldschmidt

Paul Goldschmidt finished 1-for-2 with a run scored and two walks for the Diamondbacks in their 7-1 win over the Pirates. Goldschmidt only has a .246 batting average this season, but his 15 walks have led to a .398 OBP.

Fantasy Impact:

Fantasy owners may be scared that Goldschmidt's batting average is only .246, but he is filling in every other category in 2016. Goldschmidt has six extra-base hits, eight runs scored, and 12 RBI for the Diamondbacks this season and still has a solid .844 OPS. The top-five performer has hit at least .285 in each of the last four seasons, including .300 in each of the last three seasons, so do not panic about the low batting average. If there are any fantasy owners that are selling low on this dominant player in what has become a very good offense, pounce on him quickly.
