Maikel Franco hits grand slam in Phillies win
The Phillies rookie slugged his 12th home run of the season in "grand" fashion as the Phillies defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-2 in Jimmy Rollins' return to Citizens Bank Park. The lowly Phillies have baseball's best record since the all-star break at 13-3.
What It Means:
Franco has had an impressive rookie campaign boasting a slash line of .282/.339/.491 with a .357 wOBA and a 1.29 nERD. However, contrary to his current numbers, our metrics have him projected to hit just .237 with a .298 wOBA in the second half while posting a -2.94 fantasy score, which would rank 294th amongst position players during that time span.
