Derek Hill

Derek Hill went 3-for-6 with two home runs and three RBI in the Marlins' 12-8 victory over the Rockies.

Fantasy Impact

This performance marked a notable power display from Hill, who has struggled to maintain a consistent batting average this season. With seven home runs now on the year, he's showing some potential for power, which could be useful for fantasy managers in need of home runs and RBI. However, his high strikeout rate and low walk rate continue to be areas of concern, limiting his on-base potential. Fantasy managers should view Hill as a possible streaming option in favorable matchups rather than a regular starter.

Derek Hill went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI as the Marlins fell to the Rockies 8-2.

Fantasy Impact

This solo shot marks Hill's fifth homer of the season, contributing to his modest total of 21 RBI. Despite the power display, Hill's season batting average sits at a lackluster .233, and his high strikeout rate of .324 continues to be a concern for fantasy managers. His limited on-base skills, highlighted by a mere .029 walk rate, cap his scoring potential, making him a fringe option in deeper fantasy leagues. His speed has not been a significant factor either, with only five steals on the year. Overall, Hill's fantasy value remains limited to formats that reward power without penalizing strikeouts heavily.

Fantasy Impact

His performance was highlighted by a crucial home run that significantly contributed to the team's win. With this game, Hill's season totals have nudged slightly upwards, but his overall .254 batting average and modest power numbers suggest he remains a fringe fantasy option in deeper leagues. His high strikeout rate continues to be a concern, limiting his on-base opportunities. Fantasy managers should view Hill as a situational player, best utilized when matchups are favorable, given his current form and statistical output.
