2025 Fantasy Outlook
Espinoza was the only bright spot for San Jose in 2024. He scored four goals and added 14 assists in what was one of the worst offenses in the league. It speaks to Espinoza's talent that he was productive even in such a dreadful year. With wholesale changes throughout the starting XI, the future is uncertain for Espinoza, though it's unlikely anyone takes his set-piece role. If he gets a truly elite striker to finish his chances he could push for MVP candidacy, if not, he could be left making the most of a bad situation for yet another year.

Once again logs 13 crosses
Espinoza recorded one shot (zero on goal), 13 crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus FC Dallas. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 53rd minute.
ANALYSIS
Currently, July includes Espinoza's two appearances, both in which he logged 13 crosses. But unlike the previous game, Espinoza recorded five times fewer accurate crosses. Except for one game, between May 25 and July 16, the winger has struggled to score or assist, a previously non-existent problem he will try rectifying during July's second half.
