Joey Gallo Smashes Three-Run Homer In Multi-Hit Performance

Washington Nationals first baseman and outfielder Joey Gallo smashed a three-run home run and went 2-3 with a walk in Washington's 5-1 win over the Chicago Cubs on Saturday. Gallo's homer was his ninth and he improved his OPS to .622 on the season. It was a positive game in a down season for the lefty, whose .622 OPS would be a career low outside of a 17-game season in 2016. Much of Gallo's 2024 has been marred with injuries, holding him back and limiting his playing time. Even with the missed playing time, this would be his third straight season with an xwOBA below .300, something fantasy managers simply aren't used to seeing. As an unrestricted free agent for the 2025 season, it may not be surprising to see Gallo sign with another team as the Nationals turn their heads to younger guys like Juan Yepez and Andres Chaparro at first base. A change of scenery may not be the worst thing for the 30-year-old as he works to get back to his old ways. He'll look to stay hot for the season's finish when the Nationals face their next righty on Wednesday against Alec Marsh and the Kansas City Royals.

Joey Gallo In Nationals Lineup

First baseman/designated hitter Joey Gallo is in the lineup for the Washington Nationals against the New York Yankees on Tuesday, starting at first base and batting eighth in the order against right-hander Gerrit Cole. Gallo is hitting .165/.285/.310 with five homers, 12 RBI, and 18 runs scored in 52 games with the Nationals. He has struck out 78 times in 158 at-bats and has not homered since June 3. Not even the deepest fantasy leagues can justify having Gallo on a roster. At this point, it appears his days as a major-leaguer are winding down. You'll also want to avoid him in DFS against strikeout artist Cole.

Joey Gallo Returns To Nationals Roster

The Washington Nationals will have first baseman Joey Gallo (hamstring) back on the roster for Tuesday's game against the Colorado Rockies after activating him from the 10-day injured list, although he won't start on Tuesday. Gallo had been on a minor-league rehab assignment for Triple-A Rochester, where he hit .177/.378/.484 with six homers, 15 RBI, and 17 runs scored in 19 games. He is hitting .164/.285/.321 with five homers, 11 RBI, and 17 runs scored along with a stolen base in 46 games with the Nationals. Despite his massive power, Gallo is not an option fantasy managers should consider in mixed formats anymore.
