Noelvi Marte Homers In Two-Hit Day
4 months agoCincinnati Reds third baseman Noelvi Marte went 2-for-4 at the plate with a single and his fourth home run of the season in Wednesday's 11-7 win over the Blue Jays. It was the second consecutive game that the 22-year-old logged multiple hits, and he also stole his fifth base in the contest. Despite the recent outburst, it has mostly been a struggle for the Dominican since his return from suspension, now with a .197-4-14-20-5 line with a .241 wOBA and 47 wRC+ through 42 games played. Perhaps this two-game stretch is a sign of things to come, and if so, it could be bountiful for fantasy managers as he offers a strong power-speed combo, but at the same time it is hard to trust last year's output. Marte is available in almost 90% of Yahoo leagues willing to take a chance.
