Carlos Santana gets on base once on Friday
by Chris Zolli | Twins Correspondent | Sat, Jun 4th 12:07pm EDT
Carlos Santana finished 0-for-3 with a walk against the Royals on Friday, dropping his batting average to .223 for the season. The walk gave him 33 walks for the season, fifth in the American League, and he has a .335 OBP this season. He also has 19 extra-base hits and a .754 OPS this season.
Fantasy Impact:
The Indians have moved Santana around the lineup, as he has a low batting average but does get on-base, but he has only gotten on-base multiple times in four of his last 10 games. He has scored both 25 runs and driven in 25 batters, making him a decent option in OPS or OBP leagues. Santana is 0-for-6 with a walk against the Royals' starter on Saturday, Ian Kennedy, but has a .876 OPS against right-handed pitchers this season.
