CJ Abrams Steals Two Bags In Extra-Inning Loss
1 year agoWashington Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams didn't manage to get a hit in the team's 5-4 extra-inning loss to the visiting Cincinnati Reds on Thursday, but he made his presence felt on the basepaths with two stolen bases. Abrams finished the day 0-for-4 with a run scored and a strikeout. The former sixth overall pick is hitting only .233 (63-for-270) on the year, but the 22-year-old has plenty of upside and is at least contributing in the stolen-base column (11 this year) for his fantasy managers in deep-mixed leagues. Since a three-hit game on June 21, Abrams is hitting an improved .289 (13-for-45) with a homer, four doubles, a triple, three RBI, four thefts and eight runs scored in 13 games. His fantasy managers are hoping he'll continue swinging it to close out the month of July.
