Anthony Santander contributed significantly to the Orioles' 5-3 victory over the White Sox, making his presence felt at the plate.

Fantasy Impact

Santander went 1-for-3 with a home run, one run scored, two RBI, a walk, and two strikeouts. Despite a challenging season with a batting average of just .205, this game highlighted his potential to deliver power, as evidenced by his ninth homer of the year. His performance could signal a turning point for fantasy managers looking for power stats, though his high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest continued volatility. Santander's ability to drive in runs (29 RBI in 47 games) remains a valuable asset, making him a viable option in deeper fantasy leagues where power is at a premium.

Anthony Santander went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in the Orioles' 8-6 win over the White Sox.

Fantasy Impact

His performance included a solo shot, contributing to the team's victory, though he also struck out twice. Despite the home run, Santander's season has been underwhelming with a batting average of just .206 and a low BABIP of .209, indicating a potential for some positive regression. His power numbers are decent, with 8 homers and 27 RBI over 45 games, but his high strikeout rate and low walk rate are concerning for fantasy managers. Santander's ability to hit for power keeps him relevant in deeper fantasy leagues, but his inconsistency at the plate makes him a risky play in standard formats.
