Connects for 16th home run in loss
Busch went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Mariners.
Analisi
The first baseman went back to back with Alex Bregman in the top of the sixth inning, giving Busch 16 home runs on the season and two long balls in his last four games. He also has 65 RBI and a .744 OPS across 128 contests. Busch seems unlikely to match last year's marks of 34 homers, 90 RBI and an .866 OPS, but he's still been a useful fantasy contributor in 2026.

Records two hits in loss
Busch went 2-for-5 with two doubles and a run scored in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Mariners.
Analisi
Busch recorded his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 9 as he showed a bit of a spark amid what's been a slow stretch at the plate lately. Across his previous eight games before Friday, the first baseman was batting just .161 with a home run and eight strikeouts. Overall, Busch is now slashing .244/.350/.390 with 15 homers, 54 runs scored, 64 RBI and two steals in 127 contests, and he should remain a lineup regular moving forward, at least against righties.

Pops homer
Busch went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the White Sox.
Analisi
Busch ended a 12-game power drought with the first-inning long ball. He's still gone seven contests without a multi-hit effort. On the year, the first baseman is batting .244 with a .740 OPS, 15 homers, 64 RBI, 53 runs scored, 20 doubles, two triples and two stolen bases over 125 games.
