Nelson Cruz gets on base twice on Wednesday

by Chris Zolli | Thu, Apr 21st 6:40am EDT

Nelson Cruz finished 1-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts against the Indians on Wednesday night. The Mariners' slugger has a .826 OPS this season.

Fantasy Impact:

Wednesday's game gives Cruz a hit in eight of his last 10 games, but he has been held without an extra base hit, run scored, or RBI over the last three games. After posting four multi-hit games over his previous six games, Cruz only has two hits in his last three games, seeing his batting average drop to .259. Cruz has yet to show his power stroke from the past, as he only has two home runs this season, but he does have six doubles this season. The doubles will turn into home runs for this OF1 and fantasy owners will see 35-40 home runs from the 35-year-old rightfielder.
