Ends homer drought Chapman went 1-for-3 with a walk, a home run and two RBI in Sunday's loss to the Orioles.

Impact The third baseman drove a second-inning Dean Kremer sinker that stayed up in the zone over the wall in left-center field to give the Jays an early 1-0 lead. Chapman snapped a 28-game home run drought with the performance, a stretch in which he batted a meager .224 with only five RBI, but on the season he still sports a .301/.381/.514 slash line with six homers, 23 runs and 24 RBI over 46 contests.

Moving up to cleanup spot Chapman will move up to the cleanup spot for the Blue Jays in Friday's game versus the Yankees, Ben Wagner of Sportsnetreports.

Impact Chapman has been in the cleanup spot some against lefties this season but mostly has batted fifth versus righties. He'll flip-flop with Daulton Varsho on Friday, though, with the Yanks throwing righty Domingo German. Chapman is sporting a blistering .397/.461/.750 slash line with five home runs and 17 RBI.

Belts fifth homer Chapman went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Astros.

Impact The 29-year-old seems intent on re-defining what it means to have a contract year. Chapman is slashing a blistering .415/.472/.785 through 17 games with nine doubles, five homers, 13 runs and 17 RBI, and his hot streak has him hitting consistently in the heart of Toronto's high-octane offense. His .489 BABIP isn't sustainable, but with Chapman striking out at a career-low 20.8 percent rate and sporting a 100th percentile barrel rate when he makes contact, his production so far can't be written off as purely a small-sample fluke.
