Logan O'Hoppe Goes Yard Twice
9 months agoLos Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe put together a night to remember in Tuesday's loss versus the division-rival Texas Rangers. The backstop went 3-for-4 on the evening with two solo home runs. Despite the Angels' struggles, the 24-year-old has been one of the lone bright spots this season with a .282 batting average to go along with 14 homers and 42 RBI. The Angels lineup does not give O'Hoppe many opportunities to drive in runs, but outfielder Mike Trout's (knee) eventual return should help. Regardless, O'Hoppe has been putting up good enough numbers to be rostered in mixed leagues.

Logan O'Hoppe Hits Home Run No. 3 In Loss
2 days agoLos Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 8-6 loss to the Guardians. The home run came off Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase and was his third of the season, now hitting .250 with six RBI and three runs scored in five games, but with an ugly 38.1 percent K% (1:8 BB:K). The 25-year-old is coming off a 20-home run campaign, but the batting average and counting stats leave much to be desired, however, he still finished as a top-10 catcher last season. If he draws the start on Saturday, the 6-foot-3 backstop will go up against Cleveland's Tanner Bibee, who he is 1-for-9 off of lifetime with a double, a walk, and three strikeouts, so there are likely better DFS plays.

Logan O'Hoppe Hits Grand Slam On Wednesday
4 days agoLos Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe turned in a big day in a 12-5 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday. O'Hoppe went 1-for-4 with a grand slam and a strikeout in the losing effort. The veteran catcher gave the Angels a brief 5-3 lead with his seventh-inning homer with the bases loaded, but the Los Angeles bullpen was unable to hold onto it. O'Hoppe is now hitting .188 with two homers, two runs, and five RBI through 16 at-bats in the early going. After he showed some power in 2024 with 20 homers, O'Hoppe seems to be picking up where he left off in the power department, although fantasy managers would like to see him raise his batting average a bit.

Logan O'Hoppe Homers In Big Day At The Plate
7 months agoLos Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe was a perfect 4-for-4 at the plate in Saturday's 10-4 loss to the Astros. The 24-year-old whacked a pair of doubles and hit his 20th home run of the season, collecting an RBI and scoring twice in the process. The young backstop was due for a big day, having come into the contest 7-for-71 (.099) over his last 22 games. Prior to the All-Star break, it looked like O'Hoppe was in full breakout mode, slashing .276/.328/.472 in 83 games, but since then he's slashed .176/.243/.300 in 48 games. Still, his .239-20-56-60-2 line puts him in the Top 12 at the catcher position for fantasy.

Logan O'Hoppe Sitting On Sunday
7 months agoLos Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe will take a seat in Sunday's series finale as the Angels hope to clinch a series victory against the Seattle Mariners. O'Hoppe started in the first two games of the series and will cede duties to Matt Thaiss, who will bat in the eight-hole. The St. John the Baptist HS product has held a .241/.298/.402 line this season with a career-high 17 home runs and 14 doubles. He has hit the ball quite hard at a strong 46.5% mark, placing him in the 79th percentile among qualified hitters. Fantasy managers should expect the 24-year-old backstop to return to the starting nine on Tuesday evening as the Angles play host to the Dodgers. DFS players should consider fading Thaiss this afternoon as he faces Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller who carries a solid 3.23 ERA and a 0.98 WHIP this season.
