The 30-year-old slugger tagged Guardians’ right-hander Gavin Williams for a 378-foot (104.4 mph EV) solo shot that increased the Cubs’ lead to 4-2. That would be his only hit in four at-bats on the night. Suzuki is enjoying another solid season in the middle of the Cubs’ lineup, slashing .258/.312/.546 with 23 home runs and a whopping 70 RBI.

The 25-year-old hurler made it look easy in this one, getting Carlos Santana on a fly ball to right before striking out Lane Thomas and Nolan Jones in succession on swinging third strikes to end the ballgame. Palencia has been a major weapon out of the Cubs’ bullpen this season, registering a 1.80 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and a 35/10 K/BB ratio over 30 innings while converting nine of his first 10 save chances.

The 34-year-old southpaw racked up five strikeouts in the impressive outing while allowing only one base on balls. All of the damage done against him came in the fourth inning as Nolan Jones laced an RBI single into center and Angel Martinez delivered a sacrifice fly. Boyd generated seven swings and misses on 88 pitches in the ballgame, posting a CSW of 25 percent. Now 8-3 on the season, he’ll carry a sparkling 2.65 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and an 87/22 K/BB ratio (98 2/3 innings) into Sunday’s matchup against the Cardinals.

Realmuto found some good spots today, getting his hits on outfield flies with xBAs if .350, .300 and .370. Still, he deserves some luck, considering he entered with a .355 slugging percentage versus a .404 xSLG. His exit velocity numbers are about the same as usual, but his now .365 slugging percentage is more than 60 points lower than his worst season mark (.428) from the last nine years.

Rogers contributed 21 homers in 2023 and 10 last year, but he has just 68 plate appearances this season after missing time with a strained oblique and taking a backseat to Dillon Dingler since returning. He’s batting .175/.294/.298.

It’ll be Ben Rice drawing the start at catcher with Wells receiving another day off. The 25-year-old backstop is dealing with artery damage in his left index finger that leads to an intermittent cold sensation and discoloration. The positive news is that additional testing, including an invasive procedure, ruled out any potential blood clots or an aneurysm. It seems like he’ll avoid the injured list and there’s a chance he’s back in New York’s lineup at some point later this week.
