Mitch Garver powers Mariners past Athletics
by Craig Castriano | Mariners Correspondent | Mon, May 13th 8:55am EDT
Mitch Garver went 2-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in the Mariners' 8-4 victory over the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
Garver's performance today, highlighted by a key home run, provided a much-needed boost to his struggling batting average, now sitting at .180 for the season. Despite the low average, Garver's power numbers are respectable, with five homers and 13 RBI through 35 games. His low BABIP (.229) suggests he's been somewhat unlucky this season, which might hint at potential improvement as the season progresses. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Garver for signs of sustained offensive upticks, especially in power categories, but should also be wary of his high strikeout tendency impacting his batting average.
