Trio of hits in loss Witt went 3-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI and three runs scored in Thursday's loss to Detroit.

Impact Witt turned in one of his strongest personal performances of the young season, recording his first three-hit game and first multi-extra-base effort of the year. Thursday's showing raised the star shortstop's OPS to .708, though he has yet to homer in what's been a slow start to 2026 in the power department. His numbers have been trending upward, as Witt is slashing .313/.371/.469 with five doubles, five RBI, three runs and a stolen base over his past eight games, leaving little cause for concern with the 25-year-old.

Logs second steal Witt went 1-for-3 with one RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 13-9 win over the Twins.

Impact Witt is off to a steady start to 2026, batting .278 (5-for-18) with two RBI, two steals and one run scored. He's still looking for his first extra-base hit, but he did get the ball up by driving in a run with a sacrifice fly Wednesday. Witt's 23-homer showing last year was his worst in three years, but he still had an .852 OPS. Fantasy managers can afford to be patient with Witt until he starts hitting for more power, especially if he continues to be an elite contributor with his speed.
