Receiving Monday off Hoerner is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Hoerner will receive a breather after he started the past seven games while going 11-for-28 (.393 average) with six runs, five RBI and six stolen bases during that stretch. Jon Berti will spell Hoerner at second base and will bat eighth.

Stays locked in Sunday Hoerner went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Padres. He also stole two bases.

Impact Hoerner has been reaching base frequently these days, and when he gets on, he seems to have a green light to run. The infielder is 10-for-24 over his last six games with six stolen bases. Hoerner doesn't hit for much power, but he's been a positive contributor for fantasy managers in terms of batting average and steals.

Swipes another base Saturday Hoerner went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 7-1 win over the Padres. He also stole a base.

Impact Hoerner is still looking for his first extra-base hit of the season, though he's made an impact from a fantasy perspective due to his .313 batting average and four stolen bases in only eight games. Clearly, the Cubs trust the infielder to run frequently, and if Hoerner keeps getting on base at a good clip, he figures to rack up more steals in a hurry.

Effective on bases Tuesday Hoerner went 1-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-2 win over the Athletics. He also stole two bases.

Impact Hoerner maximized his time on the basepaths, as he stole both second and third base and also scored twice. The infielder has three steals in his last two games, so he appears to be fully up to speed after missing Chicago's opening two-game series in Tokyo earlier this month as he recovered from October flexor tendon surgery. Hoerner posted a career-best 43 stolen bases in 2023, and he could threaten that number this year if he stays healthy.
