Ben Zobrist Fantasy Stats

Free-agent infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist hasn't announced his retirement yet, but he is currently at home and has no plans to play. The Cubs just signed Jason Kipnis to help at second base on Tuesday, so it's unlikely Zobrist is even in Chicago's plans if they were considering bringing him back. If this is the end for the 38-year-old, he'll end his 14-year career with a .266/.357/.426 slash line, 167 home runs, 768 RBI and 116 stolen bases. He played in just 47 games for the Cubbies in 2019 before leaving due to a personal issue. Zobrist started his career with the Rays and became the ultimate utility man. He was a three-time All-Star and won two World Series with the Royals and Cubs.

Chicago Cubs infielder Ben Zobrist (personal) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Zobrist missed nearly four months due to personal reasons, but is back with the club now. The Cubs have a logjam of infielders, so it's unclear how often Zobrist is going to play. Zobrist will bat leadoff and play second base versus righty Felix Hernandez on Tuesday. This is a good spot for Zobrist, so DFS players should take notice.

Chicago Cubs second baseman/outfielder Ben Zobrist (personal) is expected to rejoin the Cubs on Sunday. Zobrist has missed almost the entire season due to personal reasons and has been getting at-bats in the minor leagues for over a month. The Cubs have had their fair share of problems at second base and at the leadoff spot and manager Joe Maddon said that he wont hesitate to put Zobrist at the top of the Cubs lineup. Zobrist is only a dart throw for owners in deeper leagues and could be rusty with how long he has been sidelined.

Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist is expected to rejoin the team in September, according to president of baseball operations Theo Epstein. Zobrist has not played with the organization since May due to a personal matter. It's unlikely that he starts when he returns to the Cubs, but will be a helpful option off the bench for the team. He won't have much fantasy value unless he starts upon return.

Chicago Cubs utility man Ben Zobrist will resume his minor league rehab assignment with the Class A Myrtle Beach Pelicans. He will play three games with the team starting on Thursday, just as he did last week with the Class A South Bend Cubs. Zobrist hasn't played with the Chicago Cubs since May 6, when he left the team due to personal matters. Assuming his rehab continues to go well, he could be back with the Cubs by September. The 38-year-old veteran was hitting .241/.343/.253 with no homers and 10 RBI in his 83 at-bats earlier this year. There's no guarantee Zobrist will see regular playing time if/when he returns, and only those in NL-only leagues should initially consider adding him.

Chicago Cubs president Theo Epstein said that there's still a chance that infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist returns to the team before the end of the year. The 38-year-old has been on the restricted list since May 7 while he goes through a divorce with his wife, Julianna. He has been in touch with the team throughout the process and has reached out to his teammates. If Zobrist does return, it would likely be late in the season, potentially in September. His absence has mostly been good news for David Bote and outfielder Kyle Schwarber. Zobrist was hitting .241/.343/.253 with no homers and 10 RBI in 83 at-bats and can be left on the waiver wire in most leagues.

The Chicago Cubs are being forced to consider the possibility that infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist will miss the rest of the season while away from the team due to personal matters that have involved divorce filings by him and his wife. Zobrist has now been away from the Cubs for three full weeks. Kyle Schwarber's two-week run in the leadoff spot is a direct result of Zobrist being absent, manager Joe Maddon said. The Cubs are also hitting .174 (25-for-144) in 21 games without Zobrist with runners in scoring position. You shouldn't wait around for Zobrist to return in mixed leagues at this point. He was hitting .241/.343/.253 with no homers, 12 runs and 10 RBI in his 83 at-bats.

Chicago Cubs utility man Ben Zobrist (personal matter) continues to be without a return date as he is dealing with a personal matter. Zobrist has been away from the team since May 7 and the Cubs have turned to versatile players such as David Bote, Daniel Descalso and Addison Russell in Zobrists absence. Outside of NL-only leagues, Bote, Descalso and Russell can be left on the waiver wire for now.

The Chicago Cubs placed infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist on the restricted list due to personal reasons on Wednesday and recalled infielder Addison Russell from Triple-A Iowa in a corresponding move. Zobrist was scratched from the lineup on Tuesday, and it's unclear how long he'll be away from the team. You shouldn't wait around for him in mixed leagues. Russell is starting at second base on Wednesday and is hitting eighth, but he'll play more of a utility role this season for the Cubbies, limiting his value to mostly NL-only leagues.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ben Zobrist (personal) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Tuesday. Zobrist was replacing the left-handed hitting Kyle Schwarber versus lefty Caleb Smith. However, Zobrist is not playing due to a personal matter. Schwarber will bat eighth and play left field versus Smith. Schwarber is not a recommended fantasy option on Tuesday.
