Fantasy Impact:
This is a pretty good return for the Cubs. Madrigal is currently out for the season with a hamstring injury, but he's under team control for five more seasons. The 24-year-old was hitting .305 before going down, and he'll be a steady source of batting average for fantasy managers entering 2022.
