Fantasy Impact:
Ellsbury has struggled with a .717 OPS this season and has a .656 OPS since the All-Star break. Ellsbury had a .318 batting average before the All-Star break, including 14 stolen bases, but an injury spell from May to July derailed his season. Ellsbury has only stolen three bases since returning on July 8 and has seen his average drop to .275 for the season.
