Wade Miley - Requires another rehab start Miley (shoulder) will make a fourth rehab start sometime next week, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Impact Miley will throw a bullpen Sunday and will require at least one more appearance in the minors following the throwing session. The southpaw allowed two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out five in 4.2 innings during Wednesday's start at Triple-A Iowa and will likely be considered to rejoin the Cubs' rotation following his next rehab outing.

Patrick Wisdom - Reaches twice, steals base Wisdom went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Reds in the Field of Dreams Game.
Impact Wisdom is more known for his power with a team-high 20 home runs following 28 home runs in 2021, but he's also now up to seven stolen bases, which is a new career best. The 30-year-old isn't likely to be an elite contributor in the category the rest of the season, but any steals he provides are an added bonus for fantasy managers who count on him for long balls.

Nick Madrigal - Tallies three hits, stolen base Madrigal went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Reds.
Impact Madrigal led off for the Cubs in the Field of Dreams Game in Iowa, and the second baseman looked comfortable in the cornfield, leading all players with the three hits. The 25-year-old has taken over as the team's top option at the keystone, and he's slashing .400/.478/.450 across seven games since returning from the injured list at the beginning of August.

Rowan Wick - Secures another save Wick earned a save against the Reds on Thursday, striking out two batters in a perfect ninth inning.
Impact Wick worked the count full to two of the three batters he faced but came out on top with a 1-2-3 inning. The right-hander picked up his third save in the past four days and extended his scoreless streak to 11 contests. Over that stretch, he's posted a 15:3 K:BB over 12.1 innings while notching three saves, one hold and two wins.

Drew Smyly - Has dreamy performance in victory Smyly (5-6) earned the win over Cincinnati in the Field of Dreams game on Thursday, allowing four hits and two walks while striking out nine batters over five scoreless innings.
Impact Smyly's nine punchouts came out of nowhere -- he hadn't fanned more than five batters in any of his 14 appearances coming into Thursday. The veteran racked up 18 swinging strikes and didn't allow any extra-base hits in the dominant outing. This was Smyly's second consecutive scoreless appearance, and he's allowed one run or fewer in four of his past five starts. Over that stretch, the southpaw has posted a 2.42 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 26:6 K:BB over 26 innings while picking up three victories.
