Jason Heyward Stats

Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward played hero for the Cubs on Saturday night versus the Milwaukee Brewers. With the Cubs down 2-0 in the top of the ninth inning, Heyward took Josh Hader deep with a three-run blast to put the Cubs on top. The Cubs offense as a whole has been a disappointment this season, but Heyward has been one of the few bright spots. The veteran is now hitting .283 with six home runs and 20 RBI. Managers can consider him in deeper mixed leagues as an outfield option.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward (illness) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. He will start in right field and bat seventh against Trevor Bauer. Heyward has missed the past two games with flu-like symptoms, but he tested negative for COVID-19 several times. The 31-year-old will look to continue a productive 2020 season where he has slashed .300/.415/.540 with five homers and 17 RBI in 100 at-bats. Alas, he is not a recommended DFS option on Wednesday as he is 0-for-13 in his career against Bauer.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward (illness) is not part of the starting lineup on Monday as the team wraps up a five-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals. Heyward left Sunday's game after the fifth inning as he was feeling light-headed and he's apparently still dealing with something related to Sunday's maladies. He should be considered day-to-day at this point. Cameron Maybin is covering Heyward's typical right field post on Monday.
