2026 review

Esteury Ruiz played 109 games with 62 starts for MIA, hitting .216 with a .333 OBP and a .366 SLG over 213 AB, a 32.2 K% and a 10.2 BB% over 255 PA, with 6 HR, 38 R, 17 RBI and 34 SB against 8 CS. He was placed on the 10-day IL Mar 25, retroactive to Mar 22, for a left oblique strain, took a rehab assignment Apr 15, and was activated Apr 23 after missing 29 regular-season days. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 1177, he finished 345th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 210th of 660 hitters and 26th of 79 right fielders. His .317 wOBA ran 42 points above his .275 xwOBA over 255 PA. The TDK LABS card had him hitting a homer and stealing a base in his second game back from the IL in early May with the speed profile intact, but by late Jul it described a reduced role with a cold stretch at the plate, and by mid Sep it had him in and out of the lineup through slumps while still flashing speed in late Sep.
