Resting Wednesday Wisdom is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

Impact After going a collective 3-for-6 with a home run, a double and two walks between both ends of Tuesday's doubleheader, Wisdom will get a well-deserved breather Wednesday. Matt Duffy checks in for Wisdom at the hot corner.

Homers, doubles in loss Wisdom went 2-for-3 with a home run, a double, two RBI, a walk and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Brewers in Game 2 of the doubleheader.

Impact Wisdom homered off John Curtiss in the fourth inning, giving the Cubs a one-run lead. In addition, he added a walk and a double that scored Matt Duffy in the game. The 29-year-old was hitless in his last four games prior to the doubleheader Tuesday. He is slashing .267/.335/.564 with 17 home runs, 35 RBI, 35 runs and three steals in 215 plate appearances this season.

Day off Friday Wisdom is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox.

Impact The stretch run for the Cubs will be all about auditioning players to see who deserves to be part of the club's future. Wisdom has made a strong case for himself in his 62 games already this season, homering 16 times while slashing .272/.335/.572, though his 37.9 percent strikeout rate casts doubt on the sustainability of that line. He looks set to continue featuring frequently over the final two months following the team's deadline-day moves, though it will be Frank Schwindel and Matt Duffy who start at the infield corners Friday.

Leads team to victory Wisdom went 3-for-4 with a double and three RBI in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Rockies.

Impact Wisdom carried the Cubs to victory, and the 29-year-old is now up to 32 RBI and a .927 OPS through 61 games. He's been a pleasant surprise for Chicago and should continue to see regular playing time, especially with Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo no longer in town. Wisdom deserves fantasy attention given his production and relatively secure role.

Hits 16th home run Wisdom went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's loss to the Reds.

Impact Wisdom keeps building on his breakout campaign, as he's now up to 16 home runs, 27 RBI and 30 runs scored through 56 games, to go along with a strong .940 OPS. With the Cubs trading Anthony Rizzo Thursday and potentially making a few more moves before Friday's deadline, Wisdom should see all the playing time he can handle the rest of the way.

Pops 15th home run Wisdom hit a pinch-hit home run in his only at-bat during Tuesday's loss to the Reds.

Impact Even without being in the starting lineup, Wisdom was able to impact Tuesday's game with a ninth-inning home run, though it wasn't enough to rally the Cubs. The 29-year-old has been a revelation for Chicago with 15 home runs and a .924 OPS this season. By comparison, he came into the year with four career home runs and a .696 OPS across 43 MLB games. Wisdom should remain in the lineup for the Cubs most days based on his strong performance.

Takes seat Tuesday Wisdom is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

Impact The third baseman went 1-for-2 with a trio of walks and a run Monday. Since the All-Star break, Wisdom has gone 7-for-33 with two home runs, six walks and seven runs while striking out 18 times. Kris Bryant will play third base Tuesday, with Ian Happ getting the start in left field.

On bench Friday Wisdom is out of the lineup Friday against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Wisdom started the past five contests but will head to the bench while mired in a 1-for-12 mini slump since recording a three-hit game Monday. Matt Duffy (back) was activated from the injured list Friday and will start at the hot corner.

JULY 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Homers in loss Monday Wisdom went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in Monday's loss to the Cardinals.

Impact The Cubs are struggling at 46-48 but Wisdom has been a pleasant surprise, as he now has 14 home runs and a .962 OPS through 47 games. The sample size is getting large enough that it's hard to ignore, and the 29-year-old could settle in as the everyday third baseman, with Kris Bryant likely ticketed for more time in the outfield following the trade of Joc Pederson. Of course, Bryant might also get traded before the deadline, which would only open up more playing time for Wisdom.

Goes deep again Wisdom went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Chicago's 5-1 triumph over Arizona on Friday.

Impact Wisdom took Matt Peacock yard to left for a valuable insurance run in the seventh but didn't do anything productive at the dish otherwise. Astoundingly enough, 13 of the corner infielder's 17 extra-base hits have left the ballpark and he sports a robust .630 slugging as a result.

Launches 12 homer Wisdom went 2-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and three runs in Friday's 10-5 win over the Cardinals.

Impact A two-run lead in the seventh quickly expanded to seven as Wisdom hit a two-run shot immediately after Kris Bryant's three-run double. Coupled with a first-inning single, the 29-year-old enjoyed a very nice afternoon and has now gone 5-for-23 since the start of July with four RBI. Wisdom has struck out frequently, though, fanning eight times in that span. Friday's performance improved his season-long average to .279.
