JJ Bleday powers Athletics to victory over Mariners
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sun, May 12th 8:32am EDT
JJ Bleday went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Athletics' 8-1 rout of the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
His solo shot contributed to a dominant win, marking his fifth homer of the season. Despite a modest .241 batting average over 41 games, Bleday's power stroke has been a valuable asset, especially considering his contribution to the team's run production. His wOBA of .326 indicates a decent ability to create runs, but his high strikeout rate and relatively low BABIP suggest there's room for improvement. Fantasy managers should view Bleday as a potential power source, though his inconsistency at the plate might make him a risky play in shallower leagues.
