Cincinnati Reds DFS SPIN
Elly De La Cruz hit for the cycle, knocked in four runs and even stole a base as the Reds edged the Braves 11-10 on Friday. De La Cruz doubled in the second, homered in the third, singled in the fifth and then tripled in the sixth to become the youngest player to hit for the cycle since César Cedeño in 1972.The double left his bat at 116.6 mph. De La Cruz is now hitting .361/.418/.656 with three homers, 10 RBI, 17 runs scored and seven steals in 15 games major league games. Of course, he will cool off, but it still looks like he’s going to win some people some fantasy leagues.
