Cal Raleigh powers Mariners past Astros
by Chris Schommer | Mariners Correspondent | Sun, May 5th 6:17am EDT
Cal Raleigh went 1-for-4 in the Mariners' 5-0 victory over the Astros with a home run and two RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, highlighted by his seventh homer of the season, offers a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers enduring his lackluster .210 batting average. Despite the low average and high strikeout rate (.336), Raleigh's power numbers are respectable for a catcher, with 15 RBI and seven home runs through 29 games. His ability to contribute valuable home runs and RBI can offset the batting average risk in deeper leagues or two-catcher formats. However, his limited contributions in other categories and high strikeout frequency suggest caution in relying on him as a primary fantasy catcher.
