Oneil Cruz swings big but Pirates fall short

by Chris Schommer | Pirates Correspondent | Sat, Aug 10th 7:28am EDT

Oneil Cruz went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, and two RBI in the Pirates' 9-5 loss to the Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact:

This performance underscores Cruz's potential to deliver significant fantasy value through his power-hitting capabilities. Despite the Pirates' loss, Cruz's ability to connect with the ball, as evidenced by his 18 home runs and .262 batting average over 103 games, makes him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups. However, his high strikeout rate remains a concern, potentially impacting his batting average and on-base opportunities. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his performance closely, especially in leagues that penalize strikeouts.
