Cubs' Kevin Alcantara: First start since call-up
Alcantara will draw the start at designated hitter and bat eighth in Sunday night's series finale against the Cardinals.
Alcantara will be in the starting lineup for the first time since being called up from Triple-A Iowa on May 23. The 23-year-old has gone 0-for-3 with three strikeouts and a walk over four plate appearances off the bench since his promotion, but he'll get the nod over Moises Ballesteros and Michael Conforto at DH with southpaw Matthew Liberatore on the mound for St. Louis on Sunday.

Cubs' Kevin Alcantara: Recalled from Iowa
The Cubs recalled Alcantara from Triple-A Iowa on Saturday.
Alcantara has spent the entire season up to this point at Iowa, slashing .242/.339/.567 with 15 homers, 32 RBI, 27 runs and three steals across 41 games. The 23-year-old prospect will now rejoin the big club to provide depth to Chicago's outfield group and give a break to some of the team's struggling hitters. Nicky Lopez was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Cubs' Kevin Alcantara: Beginning 2026 at Triple-A
Alcantara was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Monday, per MLB's transactions log.
Alcantara failed to secure a spot on the Cubs' Opening Day roster and will now report to Triple-A, where he'll open the 2026 campaign. He slashed .266/.348/.468 with 17 home runs, 69 RBI, eight stolen bases and 56 runs a year ago with Iowa and should be in the running for a promotion later in the year.

Cubs' Kevin Alcantara: Off to slow spring start
Through three Cactus League appearances, Alcantara is just 1-for-10 with five strikeouts.
Alcantara is competing for a spot on Chicago's Opening Day roster in camp, but he hasn't done much to make a mark yet. The 23-year-old has appeared in only 13 games at the MLB level the last two years compared to 137 games for Triple-A Iowa, and he could once again be ticketed for a trip to the minors with an option still in hand. Alcantara remains a talented prospect, and he seems likely to push for a role with the Cubs at some point in 2026, even if it doesn't happen right out of the gates.

Cubs' Kevin Alcantara: Still has minor-league option
Alcantara (abdomen), who figures to compete for an Opening Day roster spot during spring training, will have another minor-league option this year, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
It was previously reported that Alcantara would be out of options this year, but the Cubs now have a little more flexibility with the 23-year-old outfielder, who spent most of last season with Triple-A Iowa. Either way, Alcantara figures to compete for a reserve outfield spot in camp, and he could even push for a larger role now that Kyle Tucker is gone. Alcantara had core-muscle surgery back in October, though he's expected to be fully healthy for spring training. The youngster has plenty of upside heading into 2026 and could be a breakout candidate if the playing time is there.

Cubs' Kevin Alcantara: Set for core-muscle surgery
Alcantara will undergo core-muscle surgery Thursday, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.
The expectation is that Alcantara will have a relatively normal offseason and report to spring training in full health. Alcantara has seen spot duty with the Cubs each of the last two seasons, going 5-for-21 at the dish. The 23-year-old slashed .266/.349/.470 with 17 home runs and 10 stolen bases over 102 contests in 2025 at Triple-A Iowa. Alcantara is out of minor-league options, so he's likely to make the Cubs' Opening Day roster in 2026, though it could be as a reserve outfielder.
