Miles Mastrobuoni shines despite Cubs' narrow loss

Miles Mastrobuoni went 3-for-4 with a double, two runs scored, and one RBI in the Cubs' tight 10-9 loss to the Pirates.

Fantasy Impact

This performance marked a significant uptick for Mastrobuoni, who has struggled to find his rhythm this season, entering the game with a mere .167 batting average. His three hits in the game matched his total hits from the previous 11 games, suggesting a potential turning point for the second baseman. While his season-long stats still paint a grim picture, today's game could be the confidence booster he needs to start contributing more consistently at the plate. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Mastrobuoni to see if he can build on this performance and become a viable option in deeper leagues.
