Luis Vázquez's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Chicago Cubs shortstop prospect Luis Vazquez (undisclosed) went deep twice in his return to Triple-A on Thursday evening. Vazquez has been sidelined for just over a month due to an undisclosed injury. Vazquez earned a brief taste of the majors earlier this summer but went 0-for-1 in his lone at-bat. At Triple-A, he has held a .261/.351/.422 line through 58 games. However, across his past 11 games at Triple-A Iowa, Vazquez has posted a strong .316/.395/.579, which shows he began to turn the corner before the injury and has already picked up right where he left off yesterday evening. Vazquez could get another opportunity in the majors later this summer if he continues to perform well at Iowa.

Chicago Cubs infielder Luis Vazquez has reportedly been called up from Triple-A Iowa on Sunday. The assumption is that infielder Nico Hoerner (hamstring) is headed to the injured list with Vazquez joining the roster. The 22-year-old was slashing .270/.369/.409 with three home runs and 11 RBI in Triple-A this season. The Cubs haven't announced who is going down to the minors as a corresponding roster move. The expectation is that Vazquez should get significant playing time until the Cubs middle infield gets healthy again.
