Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Keeps surging Wednesday
Suzuki went 3-for-5 with a walk, a double, a home run, three RBI and three total runs scored in Wednesday's 23-3 win over the Padres.
The Cubs rattled off 17 hits and eight home runs, and Suzuki was right in the middle of the romp as he recorded his 100th career long ball in the process. The outfielder extended his hitting streak to six games, during which he's batting .423 with three homers and 11 RBI. Suzuki has rounded into form as the summer heats up and has a .999 OPS in 26 contests since the start of June.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Plays hero Monday
Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Monday's 3-2 win over the Padres.
Suzuki provided a sac-fly RBI in the fifth inning before really delivering in the bottom of the ninth with a long walkoff, two-out single against star San Diego reliever Mason Miller. The winning hit reached the Wrigley Field wall and was almost snagged by a leaping Jase Bowen in left. Suzuki is now riding a four-game hitting streak, and he's batting .317 over his last 10 contests with two home runs and 11 RBI.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Provides offense Friday
Suzuki went 1-for-2 with a walk, a solo home run and two total RBI in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Brewers.
Facing Milwaukee ace Jacob Misiorowski is a tall task, and the Cubs only mustered three hits as a team, but Suzuki made the most of his with his 11th home run of the year. The outfielder is having a productive June with a .300/.398/.543 slash line, four long balls and 14 RBI across 21 games. It's also been encouraging that Suzuki has stayed relatively healthy after a right knee sprain suffered in the World Baseball Classic delayed the start to his regular season.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: On bench Thursday
Suzuki isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mets.
Suzuki will get a chance to regroup Thursday after playing in both games of Wednesday's twin bill and going 0-for-10 at the plate with six strikeouts. Pedro Ramirez will fill in as Chicago's designated hitter and bat seventh.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Tallies three hits Friday
Suzuki went 3-for-5 with a walk, a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 16-2 win over the Blue Jays.
Suzuki was one of three Chicago players with three hits as the Cubs rolled to the easy win. The outfielder is in a nice groove lately with three straight multi-hit efforts, and he's slashing .353/.441/.627 in 16 games this month with three home runs, 10 runs scored and 12 RBI. Suzuki should continue to produce at a high level as a key cog in Chicago's offensive attack.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Drawing back into lineup
Suzuki (knee) will start at designated hitter and bat cleanup Monday against the Rockies.
Suzuki was scratched from the starting nine ahead of Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Giants, but manager Craig Counsell suggested that Suzuki was held out as a precaution after he had been forced out of Saturday's win due to right knee discomfort. The 31-year-old's knee appears to have responded well enough to the day off for the Cubs to feel comfortable inserting him back into the lineup Monday, albeit in a non-defensive role. Suzuki will carry a season-best 10-game hitting streak into the contest.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Playing through knee issue Sunday
Suzuki (knee) will serve as the Cubs' designated hitter and No. 5 batter in Sunday's game against the Giants.
Though the Cubs will turn to Michael Conforto to cover right field, the right knee issue that forced Suzuki out of Saturday's contest in the fourth inning won't keep him out of the lineup entirely Sunday as he looks to extend his hitting streak to 11 games. Given that Suzuki tweaked the same knee in the World Baseball Classic and opened the season on the injured list, it wouldn't be surprising if the Cubs limited him to DH duties for the next few games as a precaution.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Dealing with right knee discomfort
Suzuki exited Saturday's game against the Giants due to right knee discomfort, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.
Suzuki was removed from the game in the bottom of the fourth inning after he attempted to make a running catch in right field. The right knee is the same one he sustained a strained PCL during the World Baseball Classic, causing him to miss the first 12 games of the season. However, it's not clear if the current knee injury is related to the prior one. Matt Shaw replaced Suzuki in the outfield following his departure.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Scratched from starting nine
The Cubs scratched Suzuki (knee) from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.
After exiting in the fourth inning of Saturday's 6-1 win due to right knee discomfort, Suzuki had been included in the Cubs' initial lineup for Sunday's game as their designated hitter. However, manager Craig Counsell indicated that the Cubs just wanted to be conservative with Suzuki by holding him out for the series finale, which will give the 31-year-old more time to recover from the knee issue. Moises Ballesteros will end up getting the nod at DH on Sunday in place of Suzuki, who will put his 10-game hitting streak on hold, unless he's called upon for a pinch-hitting situation. Suzuki would still seem to have a good chance at rejoining the starting nine for Monday's game against the Rockies, either at DH or at his usual spot in right field.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Exits with apparent injury
Suzuki was removed from Saturday's game against the Giants in the bottom of the fourth inning with an apparent injury, Vinnie Duber of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Suzuki tried to make a running grab on a Matt Chapman single and came off the field with the training staff. Prior to leaving, Suzuki went 1-for-2 with an RBI single and a walk. Matt Shaw has replaced Suzuki in right field.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Doubles twice in win
Suzuki went 2-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 5-1 win over the Giants.
Suzuki is in a nice groove lately, as he now has hits in nine straight contests. The outfielder has five extra-base hits during the hot stretch, and he's now up to a .767 OPS for the season. Suzuki still has some work to do to get his OPS above .800, which is a level he's reached in each of the last three years, but he does seem to be trending in the right direction.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Crushes grand slam Thursday
Suzuki went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in a 9-3 victory against the Rockies on Thursday.
Suzuki came up with the bases loaded in the fourth inning and bashed a homer to left field to give the Cubs all the runs they would need to secure the victory. He also struck out twice in the contest, but the homer was enough to extend his hitting streak to eight games -- though Suzuki has yet to notch multiple knocks during that span. The 31-year-old is up to 10 home runs on the season as he pursues his second straight 30-homer campaign.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Homers again in rout
Suzuki went 1-for-1 with three walks, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 18-3 loss to the Giants.
Suzuki's eighth-inning home run was about the only bright spot for the Cubs in the ugly loss. That's now two long balls in three days for the slugging outfielder, who is up to nine homers for the season across 50 games. Suzuki popped a career-best 32 home runs in 151 regular-season contests last year, and he could make a run at that figure in 2026 if he starts to heat up.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Getting breather Thursday
Suzuki isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.
Suzuki will get a chance to regroup Thursday after going 8-for-34 (.235) with a homer, three RBI, four runs and 10 strikeouts across his last eight starts. His absence will allow Michael Conforto to start in right field and bat second.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Two hits, two RBI in win
Suzuki went 2-for-5 with a run scored and two RBI in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Pirates.
Suzuki had been slumping with just one hit over his previous seven games, but he bounced back with his first multi-hit effort since May 18. The outfielder's OPS is down from .804 last season over 151 regular-season games to .729 so far in 2026, though based on his performance the last three years, it wouldn't be surprising to see that figure continue to climb back toward his recent norms.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Sitting Monday
Suzuki is not in Monday's lineup against the Pirates.
Suzuki has gone 0-for-13 with a walk and three strikeouts in his last four games. Michael Conforto draws the start in right field while Moises Ballesteros gets the start at designated hitter.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Productive in win
Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 10-5 win over the White Sox.
Suzuki snapped an 0-for-15 slump over his last four games with his first multi-hit performance since May 4. The outfielder has still been productive overall with a .272/.382/.491 slash line across 31 games. Suzuki has also put an early-season knee issue behind him, and he should continue to post strong stats as long as he remains healthy.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Smacks seventh homer Friday
Suzuki went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, two walks and two runs scored in Friday's 7-1 win over the Rangers.
Suzuki walked and scored in the first inning before taking Kumar Rocker deep to end an eight-pitch at-bat in the fourth. It was Suzuki's seventh homer of the season, all of which have come in his past 15 contests. After missing the first 12 games of the season with a knee injury, Suzuki has been one of the best hitters in baseball in his 25 games. He's slashing .304/.414/.565 with the seven long balls, 16 RBI, 19 runs scored and a 16:24 BB:K across 111 plate appearances.
