Bound for injured list Marisnick (hamstring) landed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday.
Impact Marisnick exited Sunday's game against the Pirates with a right hamstring strain. He underwent tests Monday, with manager David Ross revealing that Marisnick was diagnosed with a mild-to-moderate strain, according to Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic. Whether or not he's in contention to return from the IL when first eligible remains to be seen. The Cubs won't immediately fill his spot with another outfielder, as it's reliever Brad Wieck who's been recalled in a corresponding move.

Starting Sunday Marisnick is starting in center field and batting seventh in Sunday's game against the Pirates.
Impact Pittsburgh is starting lefty Tyler Anderson, so Joc Pederson heads to the bench and Marisnick enters the lineup for the series finale. Ian Happ (ribs) is also currently on the injured list, but when he returns, the three players will likely work in a rotation along with Jason Heyward and potentially Kris Bryant when he's not playing third base.

Tallies fourth homer Marisnick went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Wednesday against the Dodgers.
Impact Marisnick took Walker Buehler deep in the fifth inning to tally his fourth homer of the season. Though he's seen more at-bats of late due to Ian Happ's (ribs) absence, Marisnick will likely return to a limited role once Happ can re-join the lineup. Through 59 plate appearances this season, Marisnick is hitting .269/.356/.635 with 14 RBI and 11 runs scored.

Drives in five runs Marisnick went 2-for-4 with a home run, one double, five RBI and three runs in Friday's 15-2 win over the Brewers.
Impact Marisnick has served as the starting center fielder in each of the last three games since the Cubs have faced three consecutive southpaws, and he was a key force in Friday's victory. He cleared the bases with a double in the first inning before driving in a run on a groundout in the second frame. Marisnick then capped off his dominant performance with a solo home run in the fourth inning. The 30-year-old is now hitting .269 with eight RBI and six runs in 26 at-bats to begin the season.

Enters lineup Saturday Marisnick is starting in center field and batting sixth in Saturday's game against the Pirates.
Impact Marisnick picks up his first start of the season as Ian Happ heads to the bench. Pittsburgh is starting lefty Tyler Anderson, but Happ is a switch hitter, so this likely isn't a pure platoon situation and Happ should start most days moving forward. Still, this is something to keep an eye on, as Marisnick would certainly have more fantasy value if he earns more regular playing time. Chicago manager David Ross said he didn't want Marisnick to get "stale" after a productive spring training, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
