Joey Loperfido Powers Astros Past Athletics with Key Homer
by Chase Davis | Astros Correspondent | Fri, May 17th 8:57am EDT
Joey Loperfido went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in the Astros' 8-1 victory over the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance included a walk and two strikeouts. This game highlighted Loperfido's potential impact in fantasy lineups, especially given his solid .324 batting average and his ability to drive in runs, now totaling 5 RBI in 11 games. While his high strikeout rate (0.378) remains a concern, his ability to connect for extra-base hits and maintain a high BABIP (.526) suggests that he can be a valuable asset when he does make contact. Fantasy managers should consider Loperfido as a potential depth option in outfield positions, particularly in deeper leagues where power and occasional high-impact games can make a difference.
