Chicago Cubs DFS SPIN
Nico Hoerner singled in the go-ahead run in the 11th as the Cubs edged the Brewers 7-6 on Tuesday. Willy Adames got to Hoerner’s grounder up the middle, but he had no chance of throwing out the speedy second baseman. It was Hoerner’s second hit in six at-bats, and it accounted for the only run in the two extra innings in Milwaukee today. Hoerner remains the Cubs leader with 43 RBI, five more than Ian Happ and Chrisopher Morel.
Milwaukee Brewers DFS SPIN
Christian Yelich finished with two hits in five at-bats and swiped his 20th bag of the season Tuesday against the Cubs. It’s been a long time since Yelich has looked like one of the NL’s best players, and maybe that’s too much to ask for at this point. However, he’s been pretty awesome these last two weeks, going 16-for-39 with a homer, nine RBI, 14 runs scored, nine walks and four steals in his last 10 games.
