Kyle Tucker struggled in Monday's 8-7 loss to the Miami Marlins, going 0-for-4 with a strikeout and a walk. It was the ninth straight game without a home run for Tucker, who has gone just 5-for-34 with three extra-base hits (two triples, a double), six walks, three stolen bases, and a mere one run batted in during that frame. Recent difficulties aside, Tucker has thrived overall this year with a .258/.371/.511 line, 10 homers, 33 RBI, 13 steals, and more unintentional walks (34) than strikeouts (26) across 221 plate appearances. The lefty-swinging Tucker will attempt to get back on track Tuesday against Marlins southpaw
Ryan Weathers.

Kyle Tucker continued his impressive start to the campaign on Tuesday evening as he went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and two stolen bases during their victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. In the opening frame, Tucker would hit a single to center field, swipe second base, and score on a
Seiya Suzuki double. In the following frame, Tucker would tally his second single and proceed to steal second base once again. Tucker would launch a two-run shot in the eighth inning off Dodger deliver
Alex Vesia, which also scored
Ian Happ. Over his previous nine games, Tucker has held a .314/.381/.622 line with one double, two triples, and two home runs. He remains a must-start option and top play in DFS as he continues his incredible start to his Cubs tenure.

Kyle Tucker hit the go-ahead HR while going three-for-five with two RBI in the Cubs' 13-11 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Tucker added on two runs to his box score and is now hitting for a 1.055 OPS. Acquired over the offseason through trade, the 28-year-old is proving he can continue what he was doing in Houston and is providing the Cubs with a ton of value. His 21 RBI now rank third overall in the majors, giving both Cubs fans and fantasy owners plenty of faith in the lefty when he's at the plate. His next chance to continue to fill box scores will be Saturday against DBacks starter
Zac Gallen. Tucker is 5-15 with two doubles and a walk against Gallen, making him a solid target for fantasy managers and DFS players on Saturday.
