Keibert Ruiz shines in Nationals' victory

Keibert Ruiz went 3-for-5 in the Nationals' 8-6 win over the Pirates, delivering two doubles, an RBI, a run scored, and a stolen base.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance marks a bright spot in what has been a challenging season for Ruiz, who's batting just .227 through 111 games. His multi-hit game, featuring two doubles, provides a glimpse of potential upside, though his overall power numbers have been modest with only 13 homers. The stolen base is a rare bonus for fantasy managers from the catcher position, but with only three on the season, it's not a reliable category booster. Ruiz's low batting average and on-base skills, highlighted by a .272 wOBA and a .225 BABIP, suggest limited fantasy value outside of deeper leagues or two-catcher formats.
