Nico Hoerner shines with key homer in Cubs' victory
by Chris Schommer | Cubs Correspondent | Sun, May 5th 6:36am EDT
Nico Hoerner went 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI as the Cubs edged out the Brewers 6-5.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance included a crucial home run, contributing significantly to the tight win. This season, Hoerner has maintained a solid .286 batting average and his home run in this game marks just his first of the season, suggesting potential for more power as the season progresses. While his power numbers have been modest, his consistent contact and ability to get on base (.327 wOBA) make him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups, particularly in formats that reward on-base percentage and runs scored. His low strikeout rate (0.098) also helps stabilize fantasy rosters in categories that penalize strikeouts.
