David Bote Stats

Chicago Cubs second baseman David Bote (shoulder) left Thursday's game early after colliding with Nico Hoerner in the infield during the fourth inning of the club's 15-7 win. The team labeled the injury as left shoulder soreness, but it is also the same shoulder that he had surgery on in the offseason that subsequently kept him off the MLB roster until last week. Bote was 4-for-14 with four runs through five games before going down on Thursday evening after a disappointing 2021 campaign, where he hit just .199 in 97 games. The 29-year-old will undergo tests in the next 24 hours to determine the severity of the injury, so a trip to the injured list is undoubtedly in play.

Chicago Cubs infielder David Bote (shoulder) is set to resume his rehab assignment at Triple-A Iowa. The 28-year-old has not played at all this season due to injury. He was pulled off his minor league rehab assignment on June 7 due to dizziness. The assumption is that Bote will need a few more weeks before rejoining the big league roster. However, it's unlikely that he'll bring much to the table in terms of fantasy value.

Chicago Cubs second baseman David Bote (shoulder) was removed from Thursday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates due to a left shoulder injury. Trent Giambrone came into the game to replace him in the seventh inning. Bote is scheduled to undergo tests on Friday. The 28-year-old hasn't been very effective offensively this year, slashing just .199/.276/.330 with eight home runs, 35 RBI and 32 runs over 97 games. Giambrone could see an increase in playing time if Bote misses any action this weekend.
