Jose Iglesias went 2-for-4 with a home run and a double in the Mets' 12-2 loss to the Phillies.

His performance included one RBI and one run scored. Despite the team's rough outing, Iglesias continues to be a bright spot in the lineup, maintaining an impressive .333 batting average through 77 games this season. His consistent contact hitting, evidenced by his low strikeout rate and high BABIP of .378, makes him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, particularly in batting average and hits categories. While his power numbers aren't overwhelming, his ability to find gaps for doubles and maintain a solid wOBA of .366 suggests he can be a steady contributor across multiple statistical categories.

Jose Iglesias is in the starting lineup for the Mets Wednesday.
