Yasmani Grandal

Yasmani Grandal batted 0-for-4 with one strikeout in the Dodgers' 1-0 victory over the White Sox on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

The Dodgers' starting catcher is batting a respectable .263/.315/.463 on the year. He'll likely take a seat in favor of Austin Barnes on Wednesday with the Dodgers facing lefty Carlos Rodon.

Yasmani Grandal finished 1-for-5 with a three run home run in the Dodgers' 7-1 win over the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

A pair of home runs, including Grandal's three run shot, in the third inning put the Dodgers up 5-0 very quickly and knocked starter José Ureña out of the game. Grandal is a nice fantasy bat at catcher as he's hitting at a higher average than he usually does at .267/.319/.474 to go along with his solid power. He now sports 12 home runs 37 RBIs on the year.

Yasmani Grandal batted 3-for-4 with two RBIs in the Dodgers' 4-3 victory over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

This brings Grandal's total to 33 RBIs on the season with a solid .271/.325/.474 batting line. The breakout season of backup catcher Austin Barnes has relegated Grandal to something like a strict platoon role, with Barnes starting against most left-handed pitchers, but Grandal remains one of the safer catchers in fantasy.

Yasmani Grandal batted 2-for-3 and walked once against the Angels on Thursday, tying the game on a 3-2 breaking ball from closer Cam Bedrosian in the top of the ninth inning with two outs and the Dodgers trailing 2-1. In the bottom of the ninth, Grandal committed a throwing error attempting to record the out at first base following a strikeout wild pitch, allowing Ben Revere to score the walk-off run from second base.

Fantasy Impact

Grandal is now batting .268/.322/.464 on the season and remains a solid fantasy catcher in all formats hitting in the middle of the Dodgers' potent lineup.

Yasmani Grandal went 0-for-3 with a walk Monday against the Angels.

Fantasy Impact

Grandal has come down to earth but is still a nice option to have at the catcher position. He's a good source of power and shouldn't hurt you to much in the AVG department.
