Fantasy Impact
Despite managing to put the ball in play, Schanuel failed to make a significant impact, contributing no extra-base hits, RBIs, or runs. His performance this season has been modest, with a .253 average and 12 homers over 120 games, numbers that are somewhat underwhelming for fantasy managers expecting more from the first baseman. His wOBA of .324 and BABIP of .289 suggest he's been fairly average in terms of creating runs and getting on base. Fantasy managers should temper expectations, as Schanuel hasn't shown signs of breaking out into a higher tier of production.
Nolan Schanuel went 3-for-5 with a double and scored twice in the Angels' 11-3 defeat to the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the team's struggles, Schanuel's performance was a bright spot, showcasing his ability to find gaps and get on base. His season batting average now sits at .249, and while his power numbers aren't eye-popping, his consistent contact and ability to score runs are valuable in deeper fantasy leagues. His wOBA of .320 indicates a decent offensive contribution, but fantasy managers should temper expectations due to the team's overall offensive woes. Schanuel remains a viable option in fantasy formats that reward on-base percentage and doubles.
Nolan Schanuel went 1-for-3 in the Angels' narrow 3-2 win over the Braves with a double and two runs scored.
Fantasy Impact
Schanuel's performance, while not explosive, contributed crucially to the team's success, showcasing his ability to score when it counts. Despite a modest .244 batting average over 113 games this season, his on-base skills are highlighted by a commendable walk rate and a wOBA of .317. Fantasy managers should note his consistent ability to get on base and score, which, combined with his occasional extra-base hits, keeps him relevant in deeper fantasy formats.
