Wed Aug 18 2021 | 11:24 | Patrick Wisdom Not In Wednesday's Lineup |
Chicago Cubs third baseman Patrick Wisdom is absent from the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Tyler Mahle and the Cincinnati Reds. Matt Duffy is manning third base in the game and hitting cleanup. Wisdom has really struggled at the plate so far in August. Over 15 games this month, he's slashing .200/.241/.345 with two home runs, eight RBI and five runs. He's struck out 26 times this month while walking just three times. While Wisdom has some clear power upside (18 homers over 73 games on the year), he provides little else of value. He can be left on waivers in just about all fantasy leagues. |

Thu Aug 12 2021 | 19:02 | Patrick Wisdom Continues To Hit For Power |
Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Patrick Wisdom went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's blowout loss versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Wisdom was part of back-to-back home runs with Frank Schwindel in the bottom of the seventh inning off of Daniel Norris. Wisdom has been one of the success stories of this year's waiver wire pickups and is one of the lone bright spots left in the Cubs lineup. Wisdom will lose some protection with catcher Willson Contreras (knee) landing on the 10-day injured list, but he should still offer plenty of power. Wisdom is now hitting .265 with 18 home runs and 36 RBI. Wisdom is worth rostering in most formats. |

Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Patrick Wisdom went 2-for-3 with a walk, double and solo home run in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Wisdom has come out of nowhere this season and has been a valuable contributor for those seeking power. Wisdom also has become a regular with the recent trades of Anthony Rizzo and Kris Bryant. Wisdom is now hitting .267 with 17 home runs and 34 RBI. The slugger is worthy of being rostered in most leagues. |

Wed Aug 4 2021 | 23:58 | Patrick Wisdom Drives In Three Runs |
Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Patrick Wisdom went 3-for-4 with three RBI in Wednesday's victory versus the Colorado Rockies. Wisdom provided all three Cubs runs with a bases clearing double in the top of the fifth inning versus Jon Gray. Wisdom has come out of nowhere this season and has been a valuable member for both the Cubs and fantasy managers. Wisdom is now hitting .278 with 16 home runs, 32 RBI and three stolen bases. The slugger is worth rostering in most formats moving forward. |

Thu Jul 29 2021 | 18:18 | Patrick Wisdom Hits 16th Home Run |
Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Patrick Wisdom continued his productive season in Thursday's loss versus the Cincinnati Reds. Wisdom went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and now has 16 dingers to go along with 27 RBI and a .268 batting average. Wisdom has come out of nowhere this year and has brought a bunch of power with him. With the Cubs being sellers and likely to move Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant and Javier Baez, Wisdom should replace them in the middle of lineup. Wisdom is worthy of being rostered in mixed leagues and is especially valuable to managers seeking power. |
