Santiago Espinal went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in the Reds' 5-3 win against the Astros.
Fantasy Impact
His performance included a run scored, contributing significantly to the team's victory. Espinal's season has been solid, maintaining a .270 batting average with consistent production across the board. His ability to add stolen bases, like the one he snagged in this game, enhances his fantasy value, especially in categories leagues. With a stable .310 wOBA, he remains a reliable option at second base, though his modest power numbers and walk rate suggest a ceiling in terms of fantasy impact.
