  • Cubs' Mike Tauchman: Sitting against lefty

    Tauchman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

    The lefty-hitting Tauchman will retreat to the bench Wednesday while southpaw Max Fried takes the hill for Atlanta. He'll indirectly cede his spot in the lineup to infielder Nick Madrigal, who draws the start at third base while Christopher Morel replaces Tauchman as the Cubs' designated hitter.

  • Cubs' Mike Tauchman: Productive from leadoff spot

    Tauchman went 2-for-5 with two RBI in Tuesday's 4-3, extra-inning win over Atlanta.

    Tauchman served as the leadoff hitter and DH in this one, and he continued his solid play, pushing his average to .262 and his OPS to .789. The veteran is seeing regular time at DH and in right field, with Seiya Suzuki also in the mix for both spots. Tauchman isn't the most exciting fantasy option, but he's worth a look in deeper formats given his role and production.

  • Cubs' Mike Tauchman: Goes deep in Wednesday's win

    Tauchman went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 7-1 win over Atlanta.

    Tauchman was effective from the leadoff spot as he delivered his fourth home run of the season and first since April 28. The veteran started in left field in this one with Ian Happ getting the night off, but the Cubs now have a crowded outfield that features Tauchman, Happ, Cody Bellinger, Seiya Suzuki and Pete Crow-Armstrong. This could push Tauchman to the bench on a frequent basis, though the team seems intent on getting him regular playing time, and he's earned it with a strong .821 OPS so far.

  • Cubs' Mike Tauchman: Doubles, scores in loss

    Tauchman went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Mets.

    Tauchman had half of Chicago's hits in the sluggish loss, pushing his season average up to .307 in the process. With Seiya Suzuki (oblique) and Cody Bellinger (ribs) both on the injured list, Tauchman has seen plenty of playing time recently, and the veteran has responded. He should remain a solid short-term fantasy asset, though his long-term outlook is a bit murkier, as it depends on how quickly the other outfielders are able to return to the lineup.

  • Cubs' Mike Tauchman: Provides clutch three-run homer

    Tauchman went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Red Sox.

    Tauchman instilled some life in the Cubs, as he was able to tie the game up with a three-run homer in the eighth off of Chris Martin. The 33-year-old has been the Cubs' best hitter over the last week and a half, slashing .400/.500/.743 with three homers, nine RBI, eight runs and a 6:8 BB:K over 11 games since April 17. The Cubs will have a crowded outfield once they get the likes of Cody Bellinger (ribs) and Seiya Suzuki (oblique) back from their respective injuries, but for now Tauchman is seizing his opportunity as an everyday player.

  • Cubs' Mike Tauchman: Clubs pair of homers

    Tauchman went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run and a solo home run during Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Astros.

    Tauchman entered Tuesday's game homerless on the year, a surprising fact considering his monstrous performance. He tagged J.P. France for a three-run shot in the first frame and followed up the long ball with a solo shot in the eighth inning. Tauchman has collected multiple hits in three of his last six games, batting .450 with six RBI and five runs scored during that stretch.

  • Cubs' Mike Tauchman: Records two hits off bench

    Tauchman went 2-for-2 with a double and an RBI in Friday's 8-3 win over the Marlins.

    Tauchman entered the game as a pinch hitter for Nick Madrigal in the fifth inning, and he responded with his second straight multi-hit performance. Ian Happ was also lifted from this game in the seventh with hamstring tightness and was replaced by Alexander Canario. If Happ has to miss any time moving forward, Tauchman is an option to fill in there, though he'd likely continue to sit against southpaws.
