Fantasy Impact

This performance underscores Bart's solid season, where he's maintaining a .277 batting average through 61 games. His consistent ability to get on base, highlighted by a .367 wOBA, and his power, evidenced by 12 homers, make him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups. While his strikeout rate remains a concern, his overall production, including 38 RBI and 31 runs scored, suggests he can be a reliable contributor, especially in leagues that value catcher offensive output.
