Trey Sweeney Shows Power in Tigers' Narrow LossSeptember 05, 2024 | 04:48 AM

Trey Sweeney went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in the Tigers' 6-5 loss to the Padres. Writer's Analysis: His performance included a walk and a strikeout, contributing a key home run that unfortunately wasn't enough to secure a win for Detroit. Despite the loss, Sweeney's ability to drive in runs and hit for power was on display, which could be a positive sign for fantasy managers looking for potential in younger players. However, with a season batting average still hovering around the Mendoza Line at .200 and a relatively high strikeout rate, Sweeney remains a risky pick. His power potential is evident, but consistent contact and on-base opportunities will be crucial for his fantasy relevance moving forward.
