3 years agoOakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson had a big night on Tuesday to lead a 12-run outburst by the A's offense. Olson went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI, and two runs scored in his latest big game for fantasy managers. The 27-year-old has been crushing the ball this season as he's batting .264 with a .560 slugging percentage to go with his 14 homers, 36 RBI, and 33 runs. His batted-ball data backs up his success as his hard-hit rate is 50 percent thanks in part to a 14.1 percent barrel rate. Olson has a good matchup versus right-hander Chris Flexen on Wednesday before a weekend trip to hitter's paradise, Coors Field.--Mike Schwarzenbach - RotoBaller
