Week 4 Hitter:
George Springer– 5/23 H/AB, 3 R, 0 HR, 0 RBI, 0 SB, .217 BA
Springer’s performance at the plate was a good representation of how the Astros did this week.
In 6 games, Springer hit only .217 with three runs scored and recorded only one extra-base hit. At the top of the lineup, Springer is a critical piece in the Astros offense. So, fantasy owners can expect if the two-hole hitter is struggling, the offense, as a whole, is struggling.
However, a positive sign in Springer’s game this week was that every time he recorded a hit, he eventually scored in that game.
