Fantasy Impact
Swanson has heated up at the plate, driving in two or more runs in three of his last five games. The shortstop has fought consistency issues at the plate for much of the season, batting .209 with six homers, 21 RBI, and 22 runs scored across 26 games.
Dansby Swanson went 2-for-5 with two runs batted in, including a walk-off RBI single in the bottom of the tenth as the Cubs completed a four-game sweep of the Phillies on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Swanson laced a single off of Tanner Banks in the tenth to plate Ian Happ for the game-winning run on Thursday as the Cubs completed a four-game sweep of the reeling Phillies. Swanson's other RBI came in the second on a sacrifice fly that scored Carson Kelly for the Cubs' first run of the game. While the average still sits below the Mendoza line, Swanson has provided some clutch moments for the Cubs and has been getting on base with a 24:19 K:BB ratio. All told, he is slashing .192/.333/.386 with five home runs, 17 RBI, and is tied for fifth in the National League with 20 runs scored.
Dansby Swanson had one hit in four at bats on Monday, but his lone hit was a three-run home run during a four-run second inning in the Cubs' 5-1 win over Philadelphia.
Fantasy Impact
Swanson connected for his fifth home run of the season on a 2-2 pitch from Phillies' starter Aaron Nola with two outs in the bottom of the second. The Cubs' shortstop is now 5-for-15 (.333) with seven runs scored, three home runs, and seven RBI in five games against Philadelphia pitching this season. Against all other teams, Swanson is just 9-for-58 (.155) with two home runs and eight RBI in 17 contests. He'll look to continue to torment Phillies' pitching on Tuesday.
