Joey Ortiz's steady play not enough in Brewers' loss

Joey Ortiz went 2-for-3 with an RBI and a stolen base in the Brewers' 3-2 loss to the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's defeat, Ortiz's performance was a small silver lining, contributing with key hits and showcasing his speed on the bases. His season batting average now sits at .243, with a modest uptick in stolen bases to nine. While his power numbers aren't eye-popping, his ability to contribute in multiple categories could make him a useful utility player in deeper fantasy leagues, especially given his consistent playing time and middle infield eligibility. His wOBA of .325 suggests he's been somewhat effective at the plate, but fantasy managers should temper expectations due to his relatively high strikeout rate and low walk rate.
