Pops grand slam Wednesday Hoerner went 2-for-5 with a grand slam in Wednesday's win over the Nationals.

Impact Hoerner's grand slam came as part of a five-run fifth inning when the Cubs broke the game open during the 8-3 win. This was the infielder's sixth home run of the season and first since June 21, though he's still been able to contribute in fantasy due to his solid on-base skills and ability to steal bases.

Records three hits in rout Hoerner went 3-for-6 with two runs scored and two RBI in Monday's 17-3 win over the Nationals.

Impact Hoerner was one of three Chicago players with at least three hits as the team won by two touchdowns. All three hits were singles, and Hoerner hasn't homered since June 21, a span of 20 games. However, he's been an effective tablesetter for the Cubs with 21 stolen bases and 50 runs scored this season in 86 games.

Collects two hits Friday Hoerner went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Friday's 3-0 win over the Yankees. He was also caught stealing.

Impact Hoerner helped lead the offense from the leadoff spot, snapping an 0-for-9 hitless slump across the last two games. He was caught stealing for the third time this season, though he does have 20 stolen bases, so he's been mostly successful in that department. Hoerner's next stolen base will set a new career high.

Tallies three hits in romp Hoerner went 3-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI in Friday's 10-1 win over the Guardians. He also stole a base.

Impact All of Hoerner's hits were singles, but he was able to maximize his output. Getting on base regularly has allowed the infielder to run wild this year, as he now has 18 stolen bases in 20 attempts. He had a career-high 20 steals in 2022, so it seems likely that he'll fly past that figure. The basestealing should allow Hoerner to maintain fantasy value the rest of the way.

Impact Hoerner was all over the bases Wednesday, registering his third triple of the year and fifth home run. The infielder now has at least one hit in nine of his last 10 games, and he's batting a solid .284 for the season. Hoerner should remain locked in as Chicago's leadoff man, giving him plenty of fantasy value due to his ability to get on base and score runs.

Doubles twice, drives in two Hoerner went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Orioles.

Impact Hoerner supplied half of Chicago's four hits and provided most of the offensive output. The infielder is now riding a six-game hitting streak and the last three have all been two-hit efforts. The good run has pushed Hoerner's batting average for the season to .288 and he should be able to stick around that level after hitting .281 last year and .302 in 2021.

Scores three runs Tuesday Hoerner went 1-for-4 with three runs scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's 11-3 win over the Pirates.

Impact Hoerner stole his 15th base of the season in the contest, good for sixth in the National League. The swipe was just his third in 23 games since coming off the injured list from a hamstring injury on May 19. The 26-year-old is hitting .262 with just one extra-base hit in 11 games for the month of June.

The infielder is now batting .284 after hitting .281 last season. Hoerner has also chipped in 14 stolen bases this year, which has boosted his fantasy value.

Sitting Friday vs. Giants Hoerner is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Giants, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Hoerner has been a mainstay in the Cubs' lineup this season, but he'll get a rare day off against the Giants on Friday. Nick Madrigal -- who was just promoted from Triple-A on Friday -- will hit leadoff and play second base in Hoerner's absence.

Adds two steals Hoerner went 1-for-3 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Rays.

Impact Hoerner walked to open the Cubs' half of the first inning before swiping second base and scoring on Ian Happ's base hit. The 26-year-old Hoerner would add a second stolen base later in the game, giving him 14 for the season. Hoerner had cooled off a bit at the plate coming into Wednesday's contest, batting .179 (7-for-39) over his last 10 games, though he does have two homers in that span. He's still slashing a solid .285/.336/.395 with four home runs, 26 RBI and 30 runs scored through 217 plate appearances this season.

Hits leadoff home run in win Hoerner went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Rays.

Impact Facing tough Tampa Bay starter Shane McClanahan, Hoerner got the game off to a good start, leading things off with his fourth home run of the season. The infielder isn't known as a great power threat, though he has been an effective table setter for Chicago and has chipped in 12 stolen bases to boost his fantasy value.

Paces offense in win Hoerner went 1-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run and two runs scored in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Mets.

Impact Neither team generated a ton of offense, but Hoerner sparked the Cubs' win from the leadoff spot. The infielder is now batting .295 this season despite entering this game in a mini 1-for-11 slump, and he has scored 27 runs in 40 games. So long as Hoerner is healthy and sitting atop the order, he should continue to produce strong fantasy numbers the rest of the way.

Powers team in return Hoerner (hamstring) went 3-for-6 with two doubles and four RBI in Friday's 10-1 win over the Phillies.

Impact Hoerner provided the four RBI from the leadoff spot, which shows how productive Chicago's lineup was from top to bottom. The infielder had just returned from the injured list before the game, so he was able to pick up right where he left off. Hoerner is now batting a robust .310 this season and should continue to be a strong fantasy performer.
