Nico Hoerner Hustles in Cubs' 7-3 Victory Over Twins
by Emily Maingi | Cubs Correspondent | Wed, Aug 7th 11:25am EDT
Nico Hoerner went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and a stolen base in the Cubs' win over the Twins.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, while solid, underscores his consistent role as a contributor rather than a standout in fantasy lineups. His season batting average holds at .254, with modest power numbers, but his speed on the bases remains a valuable asset, as evidenced by his 20th steal of the season. Hoerner's ability to score runs and swipe bases should keep him relevant in deeper fantasy leagues, particularly those that value middle infielders who contribute across multiple categories. However, his limited RBI and home run production cap his ceiling in standard formats.
