Jacoby Ellsbury

Jacoby Ellsbury has a mixed game

Jacoby Ellsbury was 1-3, raising his batting average to .206, but was also caught stealing against the Blue Jays.

Fantasy Impact:

Jacoby Ellsbury has been unsuccessful as the leadoff hitter all spring and Saturday was no difference. He struggled in spring training last year as well, and saw his OPS drop in 2014. The construction of the lineup may be the issue, as Ellsbury thrived as the third hitter in 2014 and has not batted third yet this spring. Look for the Yankees to test other lineups to spark their offense.
