Gunnar Henderson Powers Orioles Past Nationals
by Jesse Garcia | Orioles Correspondent | Thu, May 9th 7:34am EDT
Gunnar Henderson went 2-for-5 with a home run and an RBI in the Orioles' 7-6 victory over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact:
Henderson's performance included a crucial home run, contributing significantly to the team's narrow win. This season, Henderson has maintained a solid .271 batting average and his power numbers are impressive with 11 homers in just 36 games. His consistent ability to drive in runs (25 RBI) and score (28 runs) makes him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups, especially in leagues that reward power stats. However, his high strikeout rate (0.270) remains a concern, potentially impacting his batting average and on-base opportunities. Fantasy managers should continue to ride his power streak but be wary of potential slumps due to strikeouts.
