Bregman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Guardians.

He now has 10 home runs and four stolen bases on the year and his 41 RBI lead the league. The third baseman has reached base in six straight games, hitting two long balls and adding nine RBI over those contests. Ramirez is once again providing extreme value to fantasy managers in 2022.

Patrick Wisdom 3B | SEA
Cubs' Patrick Wisdom: Homers in fourth straight game
Wisdom went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's win over the Reds.
That's now four straight games with home runs for Wisdom and 10 total long balls on the season across 38 contests. He continues to be an all-or-nothing type player, as he also struck out two more times Monday, giving him 58 strikeouts through 144 plate appearances this season. Fantasy managers may have to simply accept a low batting average with Wisdom, though he now has 38 homers in 144 games with the Cubs dating back to last year, so he's certainly delivered plenty of value as well.
