Fantasy Impact

In 2019, Marcus Semien posted career highs across the board. He totaled 33 home runs, 123 runs, 92 RBI, and ten steals with a .285 batting average. However, in 2020, he struggled with seven home runs, 28 runs, 23 RBI, and four steals with a .223 batting average in 236 plate appearances. Granted that it's a small sample, but Semien totaled two home runs with a .407 batting average in seven postseason games. He's another player who deserves a roster spot on real-life and fantasy teams, and hopefully, he returns to his 2019 form.
