Adley Rutschman Snaps Long Home Run Drought
Adley Rutschman delivered a great performance in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. Rutschman drilled a three-run home run in the 11th inning off Brewers left-hander Tyler Alexander to help the O's snap their eight-game losing skid. It was the second hit of the game for Rutschman, who chipped in a double earlier in the contest and finished 2-for-6. Rutschman ended a long drought of his own with the homer, his first since April 20, and knocked in his first run since May 11. Mainly due to his 13-for-65 offensive performance in May, the 27-year-old has stumbled to a disappointing .213/.299/.360 line with five homers in 184 plate appearances this season. However, his xBA (.270), xSLG (.474), and xwOBA (.358) do provide reasons for optimism. Despite his struggles in May, fantasy managers should continue to roll with Rutschman in all leagues.
