Scores, swipes base in loss Swanson went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Blue Jays. He also stole a base.

Impact While Chicago struggled to get anything going with only four singles and the one run as a team, Swanson still managed to have a productive night from a fantasy perspective. The shortstop is batting .297 over his last 10 games with two home runs and two stolen bases. On the season, Swanson is slashing .253/.301/.415, and he's chipped in 18 long balls and 10 steals. It's the fifth time in his MLB career that he's reached double figures in both categories.

Tallies two more hits Sunday Swanson went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Cardinals.

Impact Swanson extended his hitting streak to four games, and he has five hits across his last two contests. The Chicago shortstop is now slashing .252/.299/.416 with 18 home runs, 55 RBI and 66 runs scored across 115 games this season, which are in line with his stats from last year. Swanson has also swiped nine bases, though that's a step back at this point after he stole 19 bases in 2024.

Three hits, steal in win Swanson went 3-for-4 with a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 9-1 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Swanson had gone 13 games without a multi-hit effort, batting just .174 (8-for-46) with two homers, eight RBI and 19 strikeouts in that span. He was seeing the ball well in this contest, which also allowed him to swipe his first bag since July 22 versus the Royals. The recent slump now has him at a .250/.297/.415 slash line with 18 homers, 55 RBI, 65 runs scored and nine steals across 114 games this season.

Goes deep again Wednesday Swanson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Reds.

Impact Swanson went deep for the second time in the last three days and 18th time this season. The Chicago shortstop is now slashing .245/.294/.414 across 113 games, which is very similar to the .242/.312/.390 line he posted last year. Swanson should continue to play most days up the middle for the Cubs, though both Willi Castro and Nico Hoerner can fill in when the former needs a break down the stretch.

Snaps slump with homer Swanson went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Reds.

Impact Swanson swatted his first home run since July 13 in the third inning, giving him 17 long balls for the season to go along with 54 RBI across 110 contests. In 14 games since that last homer, the Chicago shortstop had fallen into a 10-for-50 slump with 22 strikeouts before leaving the yard Monday. Swanson should still play nearly every day despite his recent downturn in production, though the acquisition of Willi Castro before the trade deadline gives the Cubs another option in the middle infield, which could lead to more days off for both Swanson and Nico Hoerner moving forward.

Tallies two hits, stolen base Swanson went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Tuesday's 6-0 win over the Royals. He also stole a base.

Impact Chicago ran wild with seven stolen bases in the shutout win, and Swanson chipped in with his eighth of the season in 11 attempts. The shortstop swiped 19 bases last season, and he's been in double digits four times in his career. Swanson also has 16 home runs this year, giving him well-rounded fantasy value from a premium position.
