Fantasy Baseball Steals Report: Endy Rodríguez runs into relevance, Tyler Stephenson stumbles

In this week’s fantasy baseball steals report, the focus is on how matchups drive stolen-base opportunities and which catchers are letting opponents run. The season-long steals leaderboard highlights Esteury Ruiz as a repeat threat, with 30 stolen bases despite limited playing time and just 149 plate appearances. Among the past week’s leaders, José Caballero lost his Yankees starting role after George Lombard Jr. was promoted, though Lombard could still contribute with 14 steals in 78 games across Double and Triple-A. For potential targets, Endy Rodríguez stands out as a catcher starting vs right-handers with speed. The disappointment section notes Zach Neto’s struggles to steal two straight, and Henry Bolte’s disappointing base-stealing. Cincinnati is also flagged: Tyler Stephenson allowed nine of 10 steals over five starts, with a caught-stealing rate down to 17%.
