Sergio Alcántara Stats

Chicago Cubs infielder Sergio Alcantara has been optioned to Triple-A Iowa ahead of Thursday's contest against the St. Louis Cardinals. The young infielder has struggled during his time at the big league level. Right-hander Trevor Megill will be recalled in a corresponding move. The Cubs bullpen has been used frequently lately and needs another fresh arm. Alcantara could be back up around the trade deadline, but won't be much of an asset in fantasy leagues.

Chicago Cubs shortstop Sergio Alcantara went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's victory versus the San Diego Padres. The home run was his first of the season. Alcantara has started the last three games at shortstop for the Cubs with shortstop Javier Baez (thumb) sidelined. Despite the nice performance on Wednesday, Alcantara will lose his playing time when Baez returns and he can remain on the waiver wire.

Chicago Cubs infielder Sergio Alcantara has been recalled from Triple-A Iowa. The Cubs selected his contract as a corresponding move after placing David Bote on the injured list with a shoulder dislocation. The 24-year-old has put up some solid numbers in the minors thus far. He's slashing .328/.481/.459 with two home runs, six RBI, and three stolen bases over 79 at-bats. It's unclear how his playing time will shake out with the big league club but he could be an intriguing streaming option if he starts to log some consistent at-bats.
