Racks up three steals Ruiz went 1-for-3 with a walk, one RBI and three stolen bases in Saturday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Padres.

Impact Ruiz made the most of his time on base, but he wasn't able to cross the plate. The speedy outfielder continues to work in a part-time role. He has gone 22 contests without a multi-hit effort, collecting four steals on six attempts in that span. For the season, Ruiz is batting .223 with a .725 OPS, six home runs, 16 RBI, 36 runs scored, 12 doubles, one triple and 33 steals over 235 plate appearances.

Retreating to bench Wednesday Ruiz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact Ruiz had started the previous four games, going 0-for-8 with a 1:6 BB:K while reaching base on two hit-by-pitches. Three of those starts came against left-handed pitching, and Ruiz looks as though he could mainly be limited to a short-side platoon role in the wake of Kyle Stowers' return from the injured list Monday.

Swipes bag No. 25 Ruiz went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's win over the Phillies.

Impact The steal was the 25th of the season for Ruiz in only 141 plate appearances, the first time he's reached that mark in the majors since he pilfered 67 as a rookie for the A's in 2023. Ruiz hasn't been able to seize a full-time role with the Marlins, but over 11 games and 24 PAs since the All-Star break he's hitting .318 (7-for-22) with a double, a solo homer, five steals and five runs while bouncing between center field and right field. Owen Caissie (calf) is close to coming off the IL to cloud the picture in right field even further, but more playing time could open up for Ruiz after the trade deadline if Miami deals away outfield competitors like Heriberto Hernandez.

Back on bench Monday Ruiz is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.

Impact Though Ruiz had been included in the lineup for three of the Marlins' previous four matchups with right-handed pitching, he'll be on the bench Monday against Phillies righty Zack Wheeler. Jakob Marsee will draw the starting nod in center field but has produced a .406 OPS during the Marlins' ongoing 12-game losing streak and could see his playing time take a hit if manager Clayton McCullough wants to open up more opportunities for Ruiz, who has submitted an .854 OPS over the same stretch of action.

Posts pair of steals Ruiz went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Astros.

Impact Ruiz's playing time remains fairly sparse. That hasn't stopped him from racking up six steals over 13 contests in July despite going just 5-for-25 (.200) at the plate this month. The speedy outfielder is now batting .243 with an .836 OPS, five home runs, 22 steals, 10 RBI and 25 runs scored across 128 plate appearances. He doesn't have an everyday spot in the lineup but has seen fairly steady playing time versus left-handers recently.

Swipes bag Sunday Ruiz went 1-for-3 with a double, walk, a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 9-8 win over the Athletics.

Impact Ruiz is up to 18 steals on the season, though his cold bat has decreased his opportunities on the bases lately. He has gone just 3-for-17 with one walk and five strikeouts over his last 11 contests, though he still has four steals in that span. The outfielder is batting .244 with an .838 OPS, four home runs, nine RBI, 23 runs scored, eight doubles and one triple over 106 plate appearances this season. Ruiz could get a longer runway in center field if Jakob Marsee (knee) misses time after exiting Sunday's contest early.
