Fantasy Impact

His performance today, adding a double and driving in a run, provided a glimpse of potential amidst a somewhat tepid season. With a batting average lingering around the .233 mark through 31 games, Taveras's contributions have been modest, but games like this could hint at an upward trend. His ability to hit safely and score runs in a high-scoring game helps his case for more consistent playing time, which could be beneficial for fantasy managers looking for a player with potential to improve as the season progresses. However, his low walk and strikeout rates suggest that he'll need to make significant strides in plate discipline to become a more reliable fantasy asset.
