Dansby Swanson went 1-for-4 with two runs scored, two walks, two stolen bases, and an RBI on Friday during the Cubs' 16-2 win over Toronto.
Fantasy Impact
Swanson stole his eighth and ninth bases of the season on Friday and he has been yet to get caught attempting to steal all year. The veteran has eight home runs and nine stolen bases on the year but, overall, it has been a massively disappointing season as he is hitting just .177 with a .601 OPS across 72 games.
Dansby Swanson went 1-for-4 in a win over the Rockies with a two-run home run and one stolen base.
Fantasy Impact
Swanson has provided mixed results at the plate of late, picking up hits in six of his last 14 contests. The shortstop remains one of many underperforming options in the Cubs lineup for manager Craig Counsell, slashing .176 with eight homers, 30 RBI, 40 runs scored, and seven steals across 71 games.
Cubs shortstop Dansby Swanson will get a couple of days off, but "is healthy," according to skipper Craig Counsell.
Fantasy Impact
There's little doubt that Counsell is attempting to give his shortstop a reset during what has been a difficult year. The veteran infielder is hitting just .180 with seven homers and five stolen bases this season and has just six hits over his last 14 games.
Dansby Swanson went 1-for-4 with a stolen base on Friday as the Cubs dropped a 6-5 decision to the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
Swanson singled, stole second, and scored in the second inning but, otherwise, it was another quiet night for the Cubs' shortstop. Swanson is batting just .159 with one home run and three stolen bases in May. It has been a disappointing season for Swanson and for fantasy owners who drafted him to be their starting shortstop. He's batting just .188 on the season with seven home runs, 27 RBI, and five steals in 55 games. His .188 average is the fifth-lowest among qualified hitters in the National League this season.
Dansby Swanson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 9-3 loss to the Brewers on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Swanson got the Cubs on the board in the fifth with a two-run homer off of Brandon Sproat - his seventh round tripper of the season. It was his first home run since going deep against the Dodgers on April 24. Swanson is batting just .158 (9-for-57) in May and on the year, is slashing .194/.301/.368 with seven homers and 27 RBI in 43 games.
