The Phillies struggled at the plate in their 2-1 loss to the Nationals on Friday. Carlos Ruiz, who entered the game with an eight-game hitting streak, went 0-for-3 with a strikeout. His average is now .252 for the season.
Fantasy Impact:
Ruiz has six doubles, but has yet to hit a home run this season. He carries a respectable on-base percentage of .328, but is slugging just .308. Ruiz is a solid option in deeper fantasy leagues or for owners struggling to get production behind the plate.
