Jose Siri Hits 16th Home Run On Wednesday
4 months agoTampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri homered in his second straight game in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Athletics, belting a 423-foot shot for his 16th home run of the season in a 2-for-4 day at the plate. Unfortunately, Siri's above-average chase rate of 32.9% and well-below-average 62.2% contact rate leads to a 36.4% K% and bouts of ineffectiveness, so this two-game home run streak comes on the heels of an 0-for-19 stretch for the 29-year-old. He now has a .199-16-41-42-12 line on the season with a .285 wOBA and 88 wRC+, but despite contributing somewhat across categories, the Dominican is hard to rely on for fantasy and will likely crush your batting average if you do.
