Yankees Make History With Six Solo Home Runs Against Cubs Chicago’s right-hander Matt Swarmer is the second pitcher in baseball history to allow six solo shots in a single game
Seiya Suzuki - Not making progress Suzuki's finger has "stayed almost status quo" according to manager David Ross, Gordon Wittenmyer of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Impact Earlier in the week, it appeared as though Suzuki could be back during the weekend series against the Yankees, but that now appears to be off the table. The outfielder's sprained finger has already cost him two weeks, and the Cubs don't seem to have much clarity regarding how much more time he'll miss. The Cubs aren't close to the playoff race in a season which was always likely to be a rebuilding year, so the team doesn't appear to have much urgency about getting him back on the field. Suzuki is therefore unlikely to return until the Cubs are confident he's fully healthy, as they don't want to waste the rest of his rookie season dealing with a nagging injury.

Cubs put lefty Miley on injured list with strained shoulder
The Chicago Cubs have placed pitcher Wade Miley on the injured list with a left shoulder strain, one day after the veteran was activatedJUNE 11, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kyle Hendricks - Returning Tuesday Hendricks has been resting due to shoulder fatigue but is expected to start Tuesday against the Padres, Gordon Wittenmyer of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Impact Hendricks will be pitching on 12 days' rest when he returns to action. It seems as though he wasn't dealing with any explicit injury beyond fatigue and that the Cubs merely wanted to give him some extra rest, but any time an arm issue pops up for a pitcher, it's hard not to be at least somewhat worried.

Ian Happ - Steals base in defeat Happ went 1-for-5 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 13-inning loss to the Yankees.
Impact The stolen base, which came in the first inning after Happ singled against New York starter Luis Severino, was the fifth of the season for the outfielder on six attempts. He's never been a huge speed guy, as his career high for steals in a season is nine, which he recorded last year. If Happ keeps up his current pace, he may at least be able to top that mark and get to double figures for the first time.

Alec Mills - Takes first loss Friday Mills (0-1) allowed the winning run in the bottom of the 13th inning Friday to take the loss against the Yankees. He retired two batters and also allowed a hit and an intentional w...
Impact With a runner starting the inning on second base, Mills got off to a strong start with two quick outs. The Cubs then decided to intentionally walk Aaron Hicks, but Jose Trevino delivered the winning run on a sharp single to left field. This was just the second appearance of the season for Mills, who was sidelined with a back strain in April. The righty could start games at some point, as he made 31 starts for the Cubs over the past two years, but so far he's worked as a reliever.

Jason Heyward - Productive in defeat Heyward went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and a walk in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Yankees.
Impact Heyward went yard for the first time this season during Friday's matchup, and his fifth-inning solo blast provided the Cubs' only run during the low-scoring game. The 32-year-old is in the midst of a four-game hitting streak in which he's gone 6-for-15 with a homer, two doubles, four RBI and two runs.

Wade Miley - Set for re-examination Monday Miley (shoulder) will be re-examined Monday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Impact Miley exited Friday's game against the Yankees after three innings due to left shoulder soreness after he spent time on the injured list with a similar issue prior to the matchup. The southpaw said after the game that he didn't want to predict whether he'd require another IL stint, but more information will likely be known after he's re-examined Monday. If he's cleared to make his next start, he tentatively lines up to take the mound at home against the Padres on Wednesday.

Nick Madrigal - Exits with groin tightness Madrigal was removed from Friday's loss to the Yankees due to groin tightness, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Impact Madrigal started Friday's matchup and went 2-for-5 with a strikeout prior to his departure in the bottom of the 12th inning. He should tentatively be considered day-to-day, but Andrelton Simmons and Jonathan Villar are likely in line for additional playing time if Madrigal misses time.
