Ellsbury went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

He's one of the few Yankee hitters off to a good start, going 5-for-11 (.455) during the three-game series in Tampa. The veteran outfielder has only managed double-digit homers in a season twice in his career, however, so while Wednesday's blast was a nice early bonus, Ellsbury's fantasy value in 2017 is more likely to come from stealing bases and scoring runs.
