Justin Ruggiano launched his eighth home run of the season in Monday's loss to the Rays.
It was a solo shot. Ruggiano finished the day 1-for-5 with three strikeouts and left seven men on base. While the 31-year-old outfielder has done his part in the power and speed departments thus far, he's hitting just .217 with a .293 on base percentage through 47 games. He could lose his starting job if (or when) the Marlins deem top prospect Christian Yelich ready for the majors.
May 27 - 7:03 PM
Justin Ruggiano struck out as a pinch-hitter in Thursday's 5-3, extra-innings loss to the Reds.
Since May 6, he has just three hits, dropping his average to .216. After breaking out in 2012 as a 30-year-old -- Ruggiano batted .313 with 13 homers, 14 steals and 36 RBI in 91 games -- he's plummeted back to earth. Ruggiano has a tantalizing combination of power and speed which he deploys seemingly at random. For instance, on May 5, in a 14-2 win over the Phils, Ruggiano blasted a pair of homers and stole a base. Since that time? He's slashed an unsightly .148/.258/.259 and has been caught stealing as many bases as he's swiped (one).
May 17 - 3:33 AM
Justin Ruggiano blasted a solo home run off Aroldis Chapman in the ninth inning on Friday, powering the Marlins to a 2-1 victory over the Reds.
It was Ruggiano’s only hit in four trips to the plate on the evening, but far and away the biggest in the game. Working to prove that his 2012 season was no fluke, Ruggiano is now hitting .259/.310/.500 with three homers, nine RBI and three steals through his first 15 games. He remains a very attractive option as a third or fourth outfielder in mixed leagues due to his tantalizing combination of power and speed.
Apr 19 - 10:14 PM
Justin Ruggiano accounted for the Marlins' only run in Thursday's loss to the Reds, hitting a solo homer.
Tony Cingrani only throws fastballs and Ruggiano only hits fastballs, so it was a favorable matchup for the outfielder. He also had a single and drew a walk. Ruggiano entered the season in a platoon with Chris Coghlan, but he's outperformed him and should draw the majority of starts.

Olivo hasn't started since May 12 and is batting just .203/.250/.392 in 33 games this season. The Miami Herald reports that Olivo walked out on the Marlins after the team refused to grant his request for release. Jordan Brown has been called up from Triple-A New Orleans to take his roster spot.
