  • Belts homer in win
    De La Cruz went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Monday in a 5-2 victory against the Padres.

    Advice: De La Cruz set the Reds on a positive path with his massive 443-foot solo shot to center field in the first inning. The long ball snapped a four game-stretch during which the dynamic young shortstop didn't knock any extra-base hits and went just 1-for-13 at the plate, though he did maintain valuable production with three thefts during that span. De La Cruz has been one of baseball's most impressive performers early in the campaign, slashing .280/.390/.590 with eight home runs, 19 RBI, 26 runs and a league-leading 18 stolen bases through 118 plate appearances.

  • CJ Abrams blasts two-run homer in win versus MIA

    Advice: The 23-year-old continues to have a solid season slashing .300/.381/.640 with seven home runs and 16 RBI.

There was a lot of discussion if Abrams’ 2023 season was a bit of beginner’s luck, but the Nats’ shortstop is showing that last season was not a one-off. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:06 pm
