Leody Taveras shows speed in Rangers' loss
by Chris Schommer | Rangers Correspondent | Sun, Jul 21st 8:17am EDT
Leody Taveras went 2-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in the Rangers' 8-4 defeat to the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
While Taveras didn't contribute to the run column or drive in any runs, his ability to get on base and swipe a bag highlighted his performance. Taveras's season has been underwhelming with a .231 batting average and modest power numbers, but his speed remains a valuable asset in fantasy formats that reward stolen bases. His on-base skills, evidenced by his walk rate, offer some upside, but fantasy managers should temper expectations given his overall hitting struggles this season.
