Note sull'episodio
Wednesday delivered two performances fantasy managers won't forget.
Andy Pages hit THREE home runs in Houston — a 393-foot three-run shot, a 370-foot two-run bomb, and a 363-foot solo shot. Six RBIs. Career highs across the board. But the real question isn't whether the three-homer game was real (one game never tells you that). The question is whether the 52.9% hard-hit rate and the 1.9 mph jump in average exit velocity are real.
They are. Pages' wOBA (.380) runs 33 points above his xwOBA (.347), which means regression is coming. But his underlying contact quality in 2026 is substantially better than 2025 — that 15.7 percentage point hard-hit rate jump is one of the largest in baseball. He's a genuinely better hitter. Hold him through the wOBA regression.
But the TRUE value play from Wednesday? Emerson Hancock.
