Goes deep Wednesday Hoerner went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's loss to the White Sox.

Impact Hoerner is now riding a modest three-game hitting streak and he's up to two home runs this season. The shortstop isn't a huge power threat, as he failed to hit any long balls across 92 games at the MLB level over the last two years. However, the 24-year-old does make consistent contact at the plate, and he's now batting a solid .276 this season.

Delivers offense Tuesday Hoerner went 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Tuesday's loss to the White Sox.

Impact Hoerner delivered the Cubs' only extra-base hit and only RBI in the 3-1 loss to their crosstown rivals. Andrelton Simmons (shoulder) recently began throwing again, and his eventual return could cut into Hoerner's playing time. For now, Hoerner should see most of the team's time at shortstop, and he's performed pretty well with a .278 average, though he only has one home run and eight RBI across 22 games.

Hoerner leads Cubs against the Pirates following 4-hit game

Collects four hits in easy win Hoerner went 4-for-5 with a run scored and three RBI in Saturday's win over the Pirates.

Impact Hoerner collected four of his team's 23 hits in the easy 21-0 romp. The big effort boosted the shortstop's batting average to .327 this season, and he should continue to see regular playing time with Andrelton Simmons (shoulder) on the injured list.

Swipes bag in loss Hoerner went 1-for-3 with a stolen base Thursday in a loss to Pittsburgh.

Impact Hoerner picked up his second stole base of the season in the seventh inning after grounding into a fielder's choice. He made it to third on a throwing error but was left stranded there. Hoerner has never racked up big stolen-base totals (either in the minors or majors) but certainly has potential in that area given his sprint speed, which ranks in the top 10th percentile leaguewide.

Hits big home run Hoerner went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Thursday's win over the Brewers.

Impact Chicago entered the fifth inning down 1-0 but Hoerner helped spark a rally with his two-run blast against Milwaukee ace Corbin Burnes. Hoerner figures to see regular playing time at shortstop while Andrelton Simmons (shoulder) is out, and the former has the offensive skills to be a fantasy contributor.

Gets Opening Day start Hoerner will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Thursday's season opener against the Brewers.

Impact As anticipated, Hoerner will begin the season as the Cubs' everyday shortstop while Andrelton Simmons (shoulder) is on the injured list. Like double-play partner Nick Madrigal, Hoerner makes good contact and has quality speed, but he offers little production in the power department.
