Oneil Cruz swings mixed bag in Pirates' loss

Oneil Cruz went 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI as the Pirates fell to the Royals 8-3.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite the team's loss, Cruz managed to contribute with a couple of hits, including his 34th double of the season, helping to maintain his batting average at a respectable .267. His performance this season, marked by 19 home runs and 22 stolen bases, underscores his dual-threat capability on the field, though his high strikeout rate continues to be a concern for fantasy managers. Moving forward, Cruz remains a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, particularly for those in need of power and speed, but his tendency to strike out may limit his batting average potential.
