Seiya Suzuki's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki continued to end August on a high note in Tuesday's 9-5 win over the Pirates. Suzuki, who played designated hitter, went 2-for-4 with a single, a two-run home run, a walk, and a strikeout. The 30-year-old lined a fourth-inning Jared Jones fastball to the opposite field, putting it over the right-field wall for his 19th long ball of the season. Despite a mostly poor offensive August, Suzuki owns a solid .276/.348/.494 slash line with 62 runs scored, 63 RBI, and 11 stolen bases in 465 plate appearances. Hopefully, he can continue to get things going down the stretch.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki got in on the action in Monday's 18-8 win over the Pirates. Playing designated hitter, Suzuki went 4-for-6 with three singles, a double, an RBI, and a strikeout. He also stole a base. The 30-year-old has turned things around offensively after a mostly slow month of August, batting .364 with two home runs in his last seven games. This is a good sign for fantasy managers, as Suzuki has produced overall this season, slashing .274/.346/.487 with 18 HR, 60 runs scored, 61 RBI, and 11 stolen bases in 460 plate appearances.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (neck) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Suzuki will make his way back into the lineup after he was forced to sit out of Monday's contest due to neck stiffness. It sounds like Suzuki is already over the issue, which is great news for fantasy managers. He'll bat third and play right field versus right-hander Pablo Lopez on Tuesday. Fantasy managers who have Suzuki rostered can get him back in their lineups ahead of first pitch.
