Jake Burger Stats

Miami Marlins third baseman Jake Burger (quad) was removed early from Wednesday's game against the New York Mets due to right quad tightness. While he should be considered day-to-day, it is something to watch, as leg injuries can be tricky and Burger has been a nice fantasy contributor since being traded to the Marlins. The 27-year-old has hit .310/.366/.524 with eight home runs over 44 games for Miami. Stay tuned to see if the team provides any updates and what they may be.

Miami Marlins third baseman Jake Burger went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Friday's 11-3 blowout win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 27-year-old slammed a fifth-inning three-run shot as part of a five-homer attack by Miami in this one. In a limited sample size, Burger has immediately provided the slugging the Marlins were in desperate need of at the trade deadline. Since joining the Fish, the hard-hitting infielder is slashing .333/.397/.526 with two bombs, five doubles, and 11 RBI in 63 plate appearances. Burger leads the National League with 11.4 barrels per PA, so fantasy managers should add him if they need power numbers.

Miami Marlins third baseman Jake Burger was the hero on Sunday in the team's 8-7 walk-off win against the visiting New York Yankees. Burger went 3-for-5 on the day with two RBI and two strikeouts, and he provided a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth inning to complete a five-run comeback over New York. The Marlins acquired Burger from the Chicago White Sox at the trade deadline earlier this month to give them some more offensive firepower, and he's done just that. The 27-year-old slugger has gone 13-for-41 (.317) with a homer, four doubles, six RBI and four runs score in 11 games so far for the Fish. Overall, Burger is hitting just .227 (76-for-335) on the year but with 26 long balls, 58 RBI and 48 runs in 99 total games played.
