Slugs second homer Grandal went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run Monday against the Royals.

Impact Grandal slugged his second home run of the season in the fourth inning against Brad Keller. It was his first time going yard since April 9 and only his fourth extra-base hit of the campaign. Grandal has maintained a disastrous .176/.292/.255 line across 120 plate appearances, though his 18.3 percent strikeout rate provides some hope that his production will pick up.

Resting Wednesday Grandal is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact While moving between catcher, designated hitter and first base, Grandal has started each of Chicago's last 16 games, slashing .208/.373/.245 over that stretch. He'll get a much-needed breather in the series finale while Reese McGuire catches, Gavin Sheets mans first base and Jose Abreu handles DH duties.

Swipes rare bag Grandal went 2-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base during Sunday's 3-2 win over the Red Sox.

Impact The 33-year-old played at first base Sunday and reached three times in four plate appearances, and he also stole second base after walking during the eighth inning. It's the first stolen base since 2019 for Grandal, so he shouldn't be expected to run much more this year, if at all. The multi-hit game was Grandal's first of the campaign and will hopefully get his bat going after a slow start.

Scores once Grandal went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run scored Wednesday against the Royals.

Impact Grandal is playing through soreness in his legs so was limited to designated hitter duties. However, he still had a productive day at the plate and is now in the midst of a modest four-game hitting streak. It is worth noting that Grandal was removed in favor of a pinch runner in the bottom of the eighth inning, though that could be due to his lack of speed rather than an indication of injury.
