Impact Taylor may have been a bit overshadowed by Alex Bregman, who recorded his second three-homer game of the month, but he still posted a great line in the easy win. The veteran outfielder has been outstanding for the Cubs since coming over at the trade deadline, as he now has a .409/.460/.545 slash line across 18 games with his new team. Taylor even batted cleanup Monday against Milwaukee lefty starter Kyle Harrison, so he appears to be earning a prominent role in Chicago.

Impact Taylor had four of Chicago's 19 hits as a team as he helped lead the Cubs to a comfortable victory. The veteran has provided valuable outfield depth to his new club since coming over at the trade deadline, and he's now slashing .389/.452/.472 across 16 games on the North Side. Taylor is known largely for his strong defense, but he's managed to make his mark with his bat recently as well.
