Esteury Ruiz went 2-for-2 with two runs scored and two stolen bases in Saturday's 7-2 loss against the San Diego Padres.
Fantasy Impact
Ruiz drew the start in right field and made the most of his opportunity, recording two hits while swiping second base twice to put himself in scoring position. He came around to score the Miami Marlins' only two runs of the game. While he has been limited to just 110 at-bats this season, Ruiz owns an impressive .853 OPS to go along with 24 stolen bases. Although his speed gives him nice fantasy upside, his inconsistent playing time makes him best left on the waiver wire for now.
Esteury Ruiz went 1-for-3 in a loss to the Brewers with a solo home run.
Fantasy Impact
Ruiz continues a steady stretch of late, getting on base in six of his last 10 contests. The outfielder has flashed impactful ability with his bat and speed in a streaky Marlins lineup, posting a .864 OPS with five homers, 10 RBI, 25 runs scored, and 20 stolen bases across 60 games.
Esteury Ruiz drew three walks and logged a stolen base in Friday's 3-2 loss against the Cleveland Guardians.
Fantasy Impact
Ruiz didn't record a base hit in his start on Friday, but he reached base safely three times and swiped a bag. He's been limited to 12 at-bats in July, yet he's already tallied four stolen bases, pushing his season total to 20. He's best left on waivers until he receives more consistent playing time.
Esteury Ruiz recorded two walks and a stolen base in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Seattle Mariners.
Fantasy Impact
With left-hander Gabe Speier on the mound in the eighth inning, Ruiz pinch-hit for Owen Caissie and immediately made an impact, drawing a walk and stealing third base before being stranded. He later worked another walk in the 11th inning. Ruiz has been productive in limited action this season, hitting .244 with an .850 OPS, four home runs and 19 stolen bases across 90 at-bats.
Esteury Ruiz went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, one run scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 8-7 win over the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact
Ruiz got the start in right field on Sunday before shifting to center field after Jakob Marsee exited with a knee injury. He made the most of the opportunity, reaching base twice and swiping his second stolen base of July. The 27-year-old has been productive in limited action this season, slashing .244 with an .838 OPS and 18 stolen bases across 90 at-bats. If Marsee is forced to miss time, Ruiz could see a larger role in the Marlins' outfield.
