Eligibility
Adley Rutschman went 3-for-5 with a home run and four RBI in the Orioles' 9-4 loss to the Royals.
Fantasy Impact
His performance highlighted his ability to drive in runs, even in a losing effort. With this game, Rutschman's season batting average nudges up to .297, and his home run tally reaches two. His consistent contact and ability to convert at-bats into hits are promising, but his power numbers could stand some improvement. Fantasy managers should value his solid batting average and RBI production, as his power stroke should likely return as the season progresses.
Adley Rutschman went 2-for-5 with a home run, an RBI, and a run scored in the Orioles' 11-5 loss to the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact
This performance marked Rutschman's first home run of the season, a much-needed boost for his power numbers, which had been lacking despite a decent .283 batting average through 13 games. The 26-year-old continues a steady stretch at the plate, recording multiple hits in five of 10 games so far this month for the Orioles. The slugger remains a reliable option in lineups that will likely recapture his power stroke and strong run production as the season progresses for invested fantasy managers.
