Fantasy Impact
This performance is a bright spot in what has been a fairly average season for Contreras, lifting his batting average slightly to .263. His ability to contribute across multiple categories in this game, particularly with his fourth stolen base, offers some hope for fantasy managers looking for versatility. However, his strikeout rate remains a concern, hovering around 27%, which could limit his upside. Moving forward, Contreras should be considered a solid option in leagues that value a combination of power and occasional speed from the catcher position.
Willson Contreras went 2-for-3 with an RBI in the Cardinals' 5-2 win over the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact
He also drew a walk, contributing to his team's offensive efforts without adding extra-base hits or scoring runs himself. Contreras's performance this season has been solid, maintaining a .263 batting average with a decent power output of 15 homers. His ability to get on base, highlighted by his .372 wOBA and 42 walks, makes him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups, especially in formats that reward on-base percentage. While his strikeout rate remains a concern, his consistent RBI production and occasional power surges keep him relevant in most fantasy formats.
