Brent Rooker Continues To Get On Base
2 years agoOakland Athletics outfielder Brent Rooker has been one of the few bright spots for the A's early in the 2023 season. In Monday's 7-2 loss to the New York Yankees in the Bronx, Rooker went 1-for-3 with two walks and a run scored. The 28-year-old is thriving in Oakland in his first year, as he's currently slashing .319 (30-for-94) and leads the league in on-base percentage (.441), slugging percentage (.681) and OPS (1.122) while also recording four doubles, 10 home runs, 26 RBI, a stolen base and 18 runs scored in 118 plate appearances and 29 games. These numbers aren't sustainable, but Rooker needs to continue being started in all fantasy leagues while he's producing. He has a current six-game streak of reaching base.
