Jason Heyward hits a home run, but the Astros lose to the Mariners 6-1 – Jason Heyward News

by Matthew Adam | Astros Correspondent | Tuesday, September 24, 6:01 a.m. EDT

Jason Heyward hit 1 of 3 solo home runs in the Astros' 6-1 loss to the Mariners.

Fantasy influence:

This performance represents a slight boost from his modest .212 batting average, and the home run is his ninth of the season. Despite the home run, Heyward's overall performance this year remains disappointing for fantasy managers, marked by a low batting average and limited production metrics. His .297 wOBA and .230 BABIP suggest his struggles at the plate weren't due to much luck. Fantasy managers should continue to view Heyward as a fringe option, especially in deeper leagues or formats that reward defensive prowess, rather than expecting a significant offensive breakthrough at this point in the season.
