AUGUST 25, 2022 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Sitting for early game Madrigal is out of the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Cardinals.

Tallies three hits Friday Madrigal went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Friday's 8-7 win over the Brewers.

Impact Madrigal gave the Cubs a spark as their leadoff hitter. The second baseman is now batting .250 this season, though he's upped that to .325 across 12 games this month, which has been his first action since June due to a groin injury. If Madrigal stays healthy, he could be primed for a good finish to the year as Chicago's primary option at the keystone and a regular leadoff hitter.

Not starting Sunday Madrigal is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

AUGUST 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies three hits, stolen base Madrigal went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Reds.

Impact Madrigal led off for the Cubs in the Field of Dreams Game in Iowa, and the second baseman looked comfortable in the cornfield, leading all players with the three hits. The 25-year-old has taken over as the team's top option at the keystone, and he's slashing .400/.478/.450 across seven games since returning from the injured list at the beginning of August.

Hoerner, Cubs top power-hitting rookie Meneses, Nationals

Nico Hoerner homered to ignite a four-run rally in the seventh inning that sent the Chicago Cubs over power-hitting rookie Joey Meneses and the Washington Nationals 4-2

AUGUST 10, 2022 • Associated Press

Heads to bench Tuesday Madrigal is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

Impact With starts at second base in four of the past five games, Madrigal looks to be the Cubs' preferred option at the position for the moment, though he'll need to sustain a good run of health and offensive production to keep his spot atop the depth chart. Christopher Morel will get the start at the keystone Tuesday at Madrigal's expense.

AUGUST 9, 2022 • Associated Press

Taking on primary duties at 2B Madrigal will start at second base and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Nationals.

Impact With David Bote having been optioned to Triple-A Iowa, Christopher Morel having been deployed in more of a utility role of late and with Zach McKinstry getting off to an 0-for-14 start to his Cubs career, Madrigal has gained traction as the team's primary option of second base since coming off the injured list last Tuesday. He'll pick up his fourth start in five games Monday.

Back from injured list The Cubs reinstated Madrigal (groin) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Impact Madrigal missed nearly two months of action with his injury, but he's ready to resume playing for the big club. Madrigal hit .385 over his last seven rehab games, though because the Cubs have numerous options at second base, it's unclear what role he will fill in the short term. Zach McKinstry will get the nod at the keystone Tuesday versus the Cardinals.
