Nelson Cruz hit two homers off of Oakland starter Jharel Cotton, a two-run blast in the second inning and a solo shot in the fifth, in Seattle's 6-3 win over the A's on Wednesday. He finished the day 2-4 with three RBIs.
Fantasy Implications: Cruz now has hit 26 HR and 88 RBIs this season. The Mariners designated hitter has been heating up as late, smacking five homers and nine RBIs in the seven games he has played in August. He is on pace to possibly reach the 40 HR mark for his fourth consecutive year. Cruz is now slashing a very respectable .284/.369/.532 in 2017. He remains a valuable addition to fantasy lineups in all formats.
