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: Stays hot, homers again Thursday
Rotowire
Suzuki went 3-for-4 with two walks, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Thursday's 8-7, 10-inning win over the Phillies.
Suzuki has homered in three straight games, and he's gone 7-for-12 overall amid the power surge. The good stretch has pushed his season OPS up to a robust .980, which would easily be a career best. Even if Suzuki regresses closer to his career .823 OPS, he appears to be locked in at the plate and should continue to produce strong stats from the middle of Chicago's lineup.
Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Phillies.
A day after launching his first home run of the year, Suzuki blasted off again in Wednesday's victory. The outfielder looks fully recovered from an early-season knee injury, and he's now sporting an .846 OPS for the season after consecutive multi-hit games. Suzuki should remain in the lineup most days for the Cubs, playing in right field or serving as the team's DH.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Hits first home run of 2026
Rotowire
Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Phillies.
After a routine day off Monday following seven straight starts, Suzuki returned to the lineup Tuesday and launched his first home run of the season. The outfielder has only played in 11 games so far due to a knee issue that kept him on the injured list to begin the year, but he seems to be rounding into form. Suzuki blasted 32 home runs during the 2025 regular season and posted an .804 OPS, and he should continue to trend upward as he settles in at the plate.

Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Collects two hits in win
Rotowire
Suzuki went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 12-4 win over the Mets.
This was Suzuki's fifth straight start, so it looks like any playing-time restrictions after his return from a knee injury have been lifted. He's still seeking his first home run after going deep 32 times in the regular season last year, but the outfielder is batting .286 and the power should come eventually. Suzuki remains a strong fantasy option who figures to deliver plenty of homers and RBI as the season progresses.
