Matt Shaw - Returns to lineup with two hits Shaw went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Angels.
Impact Shaw was not in the startling lineup Saturday, but he returned Sunday and made his mark from the No. 9 spot in the order. The rookie was out of the lineup twice in the previous three days, with Willi Castro getting the start at the hot corner each time. Shaw has mostly played well since the All-Star break and should continue to see regular playing time, through it does appear that the Cubs want to find ways to get Castro into the lineup, which could come at Shaw's expense.

Kyle Tucker - Reaches three more times Sunday Tucker went 1-for-3 with two walks, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Angels.
Impact After getting a few days off to clear his head during Chicago's last series against Milwaukee, Tucker seems to be finding his groove again. Across three games in Los Angeles, the outfielder went 5-for-12 with two walks, three home runs, four total runs scored and seven RBI. Tucker is too talented to slump indefinitely, and with his right hand seemingly all healed after sustaining a hairline fracture June 1, it appears that an extended hot streak could be on the horizon.
