Elly De La Cruz swipes another, but Reds fall short

Elly De La Cruz went 2-for-4 in the Reds' 3-0 loss to the Orioles, adding a double and a stolen base to his line.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite the team's struggles, De La Cruz continues to showcase his blend of speed and power, which remains a bright spot for fantasy managers. His season batting average holds steady at .288, and with 19 stolen bases, he's proving to be a valuable asset in categories that reward speed. However, his high strikeout rate (.308) remains a concern and could cap his batting average potential. Owners should continue to ride his hot streaks, particularly in stolen bases and runs scored, but be wary of the potential for slumps due to his strikeout tendencies.
