Eligibility
Jeimer Candelario went 2-for-5 in the Reds' 12-7 win over the Rockies, featuring a home run, two RBI, a run scored, and two stolen bases.
Fantasy Impact
This performance was a bright spot in what has been a somewhat lackluster season for Candelario, boosting his batting average to .236. The home run was his eighth of the year, and the two stolen bases were a surprising addition, considering he had none prior to this game. This outing could hint at a potential uptick in his fantasy value, especially if he continues to find ways to contribute across multiple categories. However, fantasy managers should remain cautious, as his overall season numbers still reflect a degree of inconsistency.
Jeimer Candelario went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double, two runs scored, and two RBI in the Reds' 13-3 rout of the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact
This performance could be a sign of turning things around for Candelario, who has struggled to maintain a consistent batting average this season. His power display, adding his seventh homer and 14th double, offers some hope for fantasy managers looking for extra-base hits and RBI from the third base slot. While his strikeout rate remains a concern, his ability to drive in runs and score himself in a potent Reds lineup should keep him relevant in most fantasy formats.
Jeimer Candelario contributed effectively in the Reds' 3-1 win over the Cardinals, going 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI.
Fantasy Impact
His solo shot added crucial padding to the Reds' lead, complementing his walk to reach base twice in the game. Despite a modest season batting average of .222, Candelario's power stroke was evident with his sixth homer of the year. His performance today could hint at a potential uptick in production, but his high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest that fantasy managers should temper expectations. Consistency will be key for Candelario if he is to become a more reliable option in fantasy lineups.
