Buster Posey has one hit

Buster Posey finished 1-for-5 with a single and a run scored agaisnt the Cardinals on Friday. Posey only has a .262 batting average this season, .250 over the last week, but has three home runs over the last week and 20 extra-base hits for the season. He has a .782 OPS.

Fantasy Impact:

There is no way that Posey continues to post a batting average in the mid-.260s, as he has never posted an average below .294 in a full season and has a .307 career average, and his boost in average will boost his overall ranking. Catcher is an offensively weak position, and Posey is still the top option at catcher, with Posey on pace for both 90 runs scored and 90 RBI. He is 0-for-2 with a strikeout against the Cardinals' starter on Saturday, Michael Wacha, and has a .716 OPS against right-handed pitchers this season.
