Amaya went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 7-6, 10-inning win over the Blue Jays.

Amaya has only five home runs this season in 86 games, though he's gone deep twice in 10 contests so far this month. The catcher is batting .258 in August with a .797 OPS, which are both ahead of his season-long rates. Amaya will see his fantasy appeal increase if he can maintain his recent level of performance, as he's fairly locked into the No. 1 role behind the plate for the Cubs, with only veteran Christian Bethancourt joining him on the roster currently.
