Miami Marlins corner infielder Jake Burger continued his hot hitting on Tuesday versus the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies. Burger went 1-for-4 on the night with a walk and a solo home run. Despite getting off to a slow start and being hurt with injuries in the first half of the season, the slugger has been on an insane tear of late. Over the last month, Burger is hitting .330 with 13 homers and 19 RBI in 91 at-bats. Burger's Statcast profile backs up his power surge, as he has been hitting and barreling balls thrown to him at a very high rate. Although he will likely cool off at some point, the power is legit and should remain. Burger has given patient fantasy managers every reason to be happy and has become a must-start with his recent hot streak.
Miami Marlins slugger Jake Burger had a monster game on Sunday as the Fish beat the San Diego Padres 7-6. Burger went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and three runs scored in Sunday's victory.

He has been scorching hot lately, slashing .379/.438/.931 in his last seven contests. He is available in 16% of Yahoo! leagues and should definitely be on all fantasy manager's radars as the season comes into its final stretch.
Miami Marlins corner infielder Jake Burger remained one of the hottest hitters in baseball during Wednesday night's win over the visiting Cincinnati Reds at LoanDepot Park, smashing two home runs in the victory. After belting a ball to center field for a solo home run off Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott to open the scoring for the Marlins in the first inning, Burger pulled a fly ball to left field for his second solo shot of the game to extend Miami's lead to 6-0 in the fifth frame. The 28-year-old slugging third baseman has been raking for the past month or so, hitting .325 (26-for-80) with 10 homers, 18 RBI, and 15 runs scored in his last 21 games since July 13.
