Michael Busch - Heads to bench Busch is not in Saturday's lineup against the Phillies.
Impact The Cubs haven't faced many lefties this year, but Busch has yet to make a start against a same-handed pitcher. Justin Turner will start at first base against southpaw Jesus Luzardo.

Jon Berti - Two hits in Friday's win Berti went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 4-0 win over the Phillies.
Impact Berti has emerged as Chicago's primary third baseman following the demotion of Matt Shaw, and he's provided decent production with a .250 average for the season. The veteran's greatest asset is his speed, as he has seven stolen bases in seven attempts, and he could run more often now that his playing time has increased.
APRIL 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Pete Crow-Armstrong - Shows off speed Friday Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 4-0 win over the Phillies. He also stole two bases.
Impact Crow-Armstrong is displaying his strength as a base stealer early in the season, as he already has 12 swipes in 13 attempts. The youngster had 27 steals a year ago while batting only .237 with a .286 on-base percentage. Crow-Armstrong is batting .295 with a .339 on-base percentage so far in 2025, and he could fly past his 2024 steals total if he keeps reaching base at a higher clip.
APRIL 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Ian Happ - Delivers two doubles in win Happ went 2-for-5 with two doubles and an RBI in Friday's 4-0 win over the Phillies.
Impact Happ has been in a groove lately, as he's batting .356 over his last 10 games with a home run, six RBI and six runs scored. The veteran outfielder started slowly with a .222 average prior to his recent hot stretch, but he seems to be rounding into his usual form as a productive leadoff hitter for the Cubs.

Colin Rea - Impressive in first win Rea (1-0) earned the win Friday over the Phillies, allowing three hits and two walks over five scoreless innings. He struck out seven.
Impact Making his second start in place of Justin Steele (elbow), Rea turned in five strong innings against the Phillies en route to his first win with the Cubs. The 34-year-old Rea has gotten off to a nice start this year, both as a starter and out of the bullpen. His ERA is down to 0.96 with a 1.07 WHIP and 19:3 K:BB across 18.2 innings. Rea's currently slated to face the Pirates on the road in his next outing.

Phillies vs. Cubs Prediction, Odds, Picks - April 26
Ryan Pressly - Availability Friday TBD Cubs manager Craig Counsell said that Pressly's availability for Friday's game against the Phillies is yet to be determined, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
Impact Pressly had to have his right knee drained Tuesday. He played catch Thursday and will do so again Friday before the Cubs determine whether he's available to pitch in the series opener versus the Phillies. Porter Hodge is next in line to close for Chicago if Pressly cannot pitch, although an appearance Friday would be Hodge's third in four days, so it's possible the Cubs would prefer not to use him.
APRIL 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Javier Assad - Dealing with Grade 2 oblique strain Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Friday that Assad has been shut down after being diagnosed with a Grade 2 left oblique strain, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
Impact Assad re-injured his oblique during a rehab start Tuesday with Triple-A Iowa. It's not clear how long the right-hander will remain shut down, but Counsell intimated that Assad will have to start from scratch once he reinstitutes a throwing program. It's a significant setback for Assad, who will likely remain sidelined until at least June.
APRIL 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Seiya Suzuki - Back in action Friday Suzuki (wrist) is batting third as the designated hitter Friday against the Phillies.
Impact Suzuki was scratched from Wednesday's starting nine due to a recurrence of a wrist issue, though he's good to go following Thursday's team off day. The 30-year-old has cooled off a bit lately with a .208 average (5-for-24) in his past six contests, but it's been a productive start to the campaign with six homers, 20 RBI, 14 runs and a .276/.354/.540 slash line in 99 plate appearances.
