Eligibility
Mitch Garver went 2-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Mariners' 6-3 loss to the Twins.
Fantasy Impact
His performance included a walk and he scored once. Despite the Mariners' defeat, Garver's outing was a bright spot in what has been a challenging season for him, marked by a low .181 batting average. His home run in this game brings his total to four for the season, showing some signs of power, but his overall production has been underwhelming. Fantasy managers should view this performance as a positive sign, but it's clear that Garver needs to provide more consistent hitting to become a reliable fantasy option. His ability to draw walks is commendable, yet his high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest that improvements are needed for sustained fantasy relevance.

Fantasy Impact
Despite reaching base twice, thanks to a walk, Garver's struggles at the plate this season continued, as evidenced by his meager .156 batting average and high strikeout rate of .330. His performance this year has been underwhelming, with only three homers and eight RBI over 28 games. Fantasy managers should be cautious; Garver's current form doesn't inspire much confidence, and his low BABIP of .211 suggests he's not just unlucky but genuinely struggling to make effective contact.

Fantasy Impact
This performance, highlighted by his solo home run, offers a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers who have been enduring his sluggish start to the season. With a batting average lingering around .143 and only his second homer of the year, Garver's power display could hint at a potential turnaround, but his high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest that any significant improvement might not be sustainable. Fantasy managers should keep expectations in check, as his current form indicates limited upside.
