Luis Rengifo went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Tuesday’s loss to the Rangers.

Fantasy Impact: Rengifo dropped to a .241 average with 14 hits, four RBI, and one home run through 58 at-bats. While his defensive versatility helps his real-life value, the lack of impact at the plate makes him a deep-league option only.

Fantasy Impact: Ward improved to a .235 average with 16 hits, eight RBI, and five home runs across 68 at-bats. He’s been a solid power source but remains inconsistent at the plate. He’s worth holding in deeper leagues for his pop, though his upside is capped by low OBP and run production in a struggling offense.
