6 years agoMinnesota Twins designated hitter Nelson Cruz waited until the final game of spring training to hit his first homer. Cruz went 1-for-3 with a two-run blast in a 5-5 tie with the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday. Cruz, a 38-year-old veteran, took it slow this spring, logging just 27 at-bats and hitting .259 with five RBI. Minnesota signed Cruz this offseason to anchor the middle of what should be a much-improved offense in 2019. While hitters of Cruz's age usually fall off the cliff rapidly once they decline, he can still be treated as a solid source of power numbers in fantasy until he proves otherwise.--Matt T - RotoBaller
