Cubs' Porter Hodge: Works ninth inning Saturday
Hodge worked around a hit to pitch a scoreless inning Saturday in a 7-3 win over the White Sox. He struck out one.
Hodge got some work for the first time in three days with the Cubs up four runs, so he was unable to qualify for his third save of the season. However, the righty did manage his second straight scoreless appearance, which comes on the heels of allowing three runs while retiring only one batter back on May 11. Hodge should continue to see save opportunities, though Drew Pomeranz recorded the team's last save Monday and veteran Ryan Pressly may reenter the mix at some point if he solves his early-season struggles.

Cubs' Nico Hoerner: Reaches four more times Saturday
Hoerner went 2-for-3 with two walks, two runs scored and an RBI in Saturday's 7-3 win over the White Sox. He also stole a base.
For the second straight game, Hoerner tallied two hits and a stolen base against the Cubs' crosstown rivals. He's now up to 10 steals on the season, and the infielder should continue to run frequently after swiping 31 bags in 2024. Hoerner is also helping fantasy managers with a .285 batting average, which is slightly ahead of his career .278 figure.

Cubs' Dansby Swanson: Big performance in win
Swanson went 2-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run, two additional runs scored and two stolen bases in Saturday's 7-3 win over the White Sox.
The Cubs ran wild in this one, going 6-for-6 on steal attempts against young catcher Edgar Quero, and Swanson got in on the action to snap an 18-game stretch without a pilfer while also doing damage with his bat. The shortstop has five multi-hit performances in his last 11 contests, a surge that has seen him bat .389 (14-for-36) with three of his 10 homers on the season, along with eight RBI and nine runs.

Cubs' Kyle Tucker: Swipes two bags Saturday
Tucker went 0-for-2 with three walks and two stolen bases in Saturday's 7-3 win over the White Sox.
The Cubs ran wild in this one, going 6-for-6 on steal attempts against young catcher Edgar Quero, and Tucker was able to make an impact even without collecting a hit. Tucker himself is 12-for-12 on the basepaths in 46 contests this season and hasn't been caught stealing since Sept. 11, 2023, successfully swiping 25 straight bags since then. The rest of his line in 2025 isn't too shabby either -- he's slashing .264/.377/.528 with 10 homers, 33 RBI and 34 runs, putting him on pace for his first career 30-30 campaign.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Fans eight in fourth win
Boyd (4-2) picked up the win Saturday, giving up three runs on four hits over six innings in a 7-3 victory over the White Sox. He struck out eight without walking a batter.
The veteran southpaw did serve up solo shots to Chase Meidroth in the first inning and Tim Elko in the fifth, but otherwise Boyd was firmly in control as he delivered his third straight quality start and sixth of the year. The eight Ks tied his season high, and Boyd will take a 2.98 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 53:13 K:BB through 51.1 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend in Cincinnati.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Sitting out Saturday

Kelly isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox.

Cubs' Nico Hoerner: Scores three times in romp
Hoerner went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 13-3 win over the White Sox. He also stole a base.
Hoerner contributed to the easy win from the No. 8 spot in the lineup, as he set a new single-game season high in runs scored and also stole his ninth base of the year. Despite sliding down toward the bottom of Chicago's order, the infielder maintains plenty of fantasy upside due to his ability to swipe bases. Hoerner recorded a total of 74 steals over the last two seasons.

Cubs' Carson Kelly: Reaches three times in win
Kelly went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double and two runs scored in Friday's 13-3 win over the White Sox.
Kelly had cooled down a bit recently after a scorching hot start to year, as he came into Friday's contest batting just .182 with a .593 OPS in May. After the two-hit effort, the veteran catcher is now sitting with a strong .299 average and 1.068 OPS through 28 games overall. Kelly should continue to see plenty of playing time, but more regression is likely on the way based on his career numbers, and Miguel Amaya should remain heavily involved behind the plate for the Cubs as well.

Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong: Continues torrid start
Crow-Armstrong went 4-for-5 with a home run, two total runs scored and six RBI in Friday's 13-3 win over the White Sox.
Crow-Armstrong batted first again with Ian Happ (oblique) on the injured list, and the young outfielder continued his impressive start to the season. He's sporting an .882 OPS and leads the team with 12 home runs as well as 13 stolen bases through 45 games. Crow-Armstrong is also now second on the club with 36 RBI after his six-RBI outburst. The 23-year-old is putting it all together in his second full MLB season.

Cubs' Cade Horton: Comfortably earns second win
Horton (2-0) collected the win in Friday's 13-3 victory over the White Sox after giving up three earned runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out two batters in five innings.
Miguel Vargas hit home runs off Horton in the first and third innings, but the rest of the White Sox's lineup was rather ineffective against the right-hander, and a six-run second inning from the Cubs' offense allowed Horton to leave the game after five frames with a 6-3 lead. The 23-year-old has now collected two wins in as many appearances in his young MLB career, but he'll carry a 6.00 ERA and 1.22 WHIP into his next start in Miami.

Cubs' Kenta Maeda: Gets minor-league deal from Cubs
The Cubs signed Maeda to a minor-league contract Thursday, Yuki Yamada of MLB.com reports.
Maeda was released by the Tigers last week after allowing eight runs (seven earned) with an 8:6 K:BB over eight innings in a low-leverage relief role. The right-hander is expected to join the Triple-A Iowa rotation and make a start Saturday. Maeda could provide the Cubs with some experienced rotation depth.

Cubs' Cade Horton: Handling starting role Friday
Horton is scheduled to start Friday's game against the White Sox at Wrigley Field, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.
After being promoted from Triple-A Iowa last Saturday, Horton made his MLB debut later that day against the Mets, working in bulk relief and striking out five while allowing three runs on four hits and no walks across four innings en route to claiming the win. According to Levine, manager Craig Counsell suggested that the decision to use Horton in relief against the Mets was mainly to spare him from matchups with Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto and Pete Alonso to begin his big-league career, but the top of the White Sox lineup won't provide nearly as tough of a test. Horton should continue to hold down a spot in the Chicago rotation at least until Shota Imanaga (hamstring) is ready to return from the injured list.

Cubs' Jameson Taillon: Yields three homers to Marlins
Taillon (2-3) took the loss Wednesday against the Marlins, allowing three runs on four hits and no walks with seven strikeouts over six innings.
Taillon surrendered four home runs in his previous start and couldn't keep the ball inside the park once again Wednesday. Three of the four hits he allowed to the Marlins were long balls, with Kyle Stowers hitting two and Agustin Ramirez accounting for one. Though Taillon hadn't yielded multiple home runs since his season debut before this stretch, he's been tagged for a homer in all but two starts this year. Over 49.2 innings, he owns a 4.53 ERA and a 42:9 K:BB. Taillon will look to get back on track in his next start, which is scheduled to be a rematch with Miami next week.
