David Bote Promoted And Starting In Series Finale

Chicago Cubs third baseman David Bote was promoted to the major-league roster earlier on Sunday and is in the starting lineup as the Cubs hope to clinch a series victory over the division-rival Cincinnati Reds. In a corresponding move, the Cubs sent down infielder Nick Madrigal to Triple-A Iowa. Bote showcased his home run ability in the minors by launching seven long balls and posting a .546 slugging percentage across 28 games for Iowa. On Sunday afternoon, Bote will cover the hot corner and bat eighth. Madrigal posted a poor .221 average and had some struggles defensively, which resulted in his demotion. Bote is worth monitoring in NL-only formats, as he could carve out a stable role in a Cubs lineup that has been struggling over the past few weeks. Bote will face southpaw Nick Lodolo on Sunday and should be faded in DFS lineups.

David Bote Showing Power Early In Spring

Chicago Cubs infielder David Bote pinch-hit and went 1-for-1 with a two-run homer on Sunday. Bote's home run was his third of the Cactus League. The utility man has been off to a hot start this spring, but will need to continue to have a strong showing to break camp as a bench option for the Cubs. Despite his strong power thus far, Bote offers zero for fantasy managers at the moment.

David Bote Gets Non-Roster Invite To Spring Training

Chicago Cubs infielder David Bote has received a non-roster invite to spring training, according to beat writer Meghan Montemurro. Bote was taken off the 40-man roster prior to the 2023 season and spent 2023 at Triple-Iowa, where he slashed .258/.361/.456 over 425 plate appearances. Bote signed a five-year, $15 million contract with the Cubs back in 2020, which includes a pair of club options in 2025 and 2026. The team is paying him $5.5 million this season, but he doesn't seem to fit into their long-term plans. The 30-year-old showed some promise back in 2019 but is a career .231/.318/.393 hitter across 1,019 at-bats, spanning a five-year major-league career.
