Cubs' Kevin Gausman: Tagged for three homers in loss
Gausman (9-12) allowed seven runs (six earned) on eight hits and two walks while striking out six over four innings to take the loss versus the Brewers on Wednesday.
Gausman wasn't able to match his performance from last week against Milwaukee. He was tagged for a trio of home runs over the first two innings, accounting for six of the seven runs on his line. This was the third time in seven starts with the Cubs where Gausman has failed to complete five frames, and he's been charged with five or more runs three times in that span as well. Overall, he has a 4.60 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 171:46 K:BB through 166.1 innings over 30 starts between the Cubs and the Blue Jays. The right-hander's next projected start is another tough one at home versus Atlanta next week.

Cubs' Jacob Webb: Blows another save
Webb blew the save Tuesday against the Brewers, giving up two runs on two hits and no walks while striking out one over one inning.
The right-hander was in great shape to pick up his 10th save of the season after retiring the first two batters of the ninth on seven pitches, but Christian Yelich singled and Jackson Chourio homered with two outs to erase the two-run advantage. Webb has now blown his last three save chances and has surrendered multiple runs in four of his past six appearances. He's gone 9-for-16 in save opportunities this season, and the recent struggles likely don't leave him with much stability as Chicago's closer.

Cubs' David Peterson: Allows one run in no-decision
Peterson allowed one run on six hits across 4.1 innings and did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's 4-3, 10-inning loss to the Brewers. He walked three and struck out four.
Peterson did well in limiting a talented Milwaukee lineup to just one run, but he certainly dealt with plenty of baserunners, which explains why he was pulled after 4.1 innings and 83 pitches. It was still a bounceback effort for the lefty, who was tagged for six runs in just 3.2 innings his last time out against these same Brewers. Peterson will now carry a 5.28 ERA into his next scheduled start Monday against Atlanta, which projects as a very tough matchup for the starter and one that might best be avoided for fantasy purposes.

Cubs' Carson Kelly: Out of Tuesday's lineup
Kelly is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Brewers.
Kelly was behind the dish the previous two days for the Cubs, so he'll take a seat Tuesday. Miguel Amaya will do the catch and slot into the No. 9 spot in the batting order.

Cubs' Michael Conforto: Not starting versus Misiorowski
Conforto is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Milwaukee.
Conforto occupied the designated hitter slot each of the last four times the Cubs faced a righty, but he's not starting Tuesday against Cy Young favorite Jacob Misiorowski. Tyrone Taylor will hold down the DH spot for Chicago.

Cubs' Pedro Ramirez: Checking out of lineup
Ramirez is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee.
It appears to be a routine day off after Ramirez had started each of the previous five contests. Matt Shaw will cover second base and will bat seventh for the Cubs.

Cubs' Ian Happ: Returning to Cubs lineup
Happ (knee) will start in left field and bat sixth in Tuesday's game against the Brewers.
Happ missed the previous two starts with left knee discomfort, but he appeared as a pinch hitter Monday and is back in the lineup Tuesday. The veteran switch hitter is batting .233 with zero extra-base hits across his last 10 contests.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Fades late in loss
Boyd (8-4) took the loss against Milwaukee on Monday, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out seven batters over seven-plus innings.
Boyd got through four scoreless frames before yielding a run in the fifth. The Cubs held a 2-1 lead going into the eighth, and manager Craig Counsell elected to keep Boyd on the mound. That move ended up backfiring, as the lefty hurler put the first two batters of the inning on base via a walk and a double. Boyd was subsequently pulled, but both runners came home to score following his departure, saddling him with the loss. Boyd has gone 0-3 over his past five starts, recording a 5.46 ERA over 29.2 innings during that span. He'll look to get back on the winning foot his next time out, which is lined up to be a home matchup against Pittsburgh.

Cubs' Pedro Ramirez: Homers in loss Monday
Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Brewers.
Ramirez got Chicago on the board in the fifth inning with his fifth home run of the season. The rookie infielder snapped an 0-for-18 slump over his previous five contests, and he's now batting .263 with a .740 OPS across 65 games. Ramirez continues to see regular time at second base with Dansby Swanson (oblique) on the injured list and Nico Hoerner covering shortstop, though the recent return of Matt Shaw gives the Cubs another option up the middle when needed.

Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong: Goes deep again, swipes two bases
Crow-Armstrong went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Brewers. He also stole two bases.
Crow-Armstrong wasted no time building on his first 40-homer campaign as he went deep for the second straight day and recorded his 41st long ball of the year. The superstar outfielder also swiped multiple bases for the sixth time this season, which got him to 35 steals overall to tie his career best. Crow-Armstrong is potentially closing in on just the seventh 40-40 campaign in MLB history, and he remains an elite fantasy option capable of producing in every offensive category.

Cubs' Michael Conforto: Idle against southpaw
Conforto is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers.
After starting in each of the Cubs' last four games, the left-handed-hitting Conforto will retreat to the bench Monday while the Brewers send southpaw Robert Gasser to the hill. With Conforto taking a seat, Seiya Suzuki will serve as the Cubs' designated hitter, and Matt Shaw will pick up a start in right field.

Cubs' Michael Busch: Taking seat for series opener
Busch is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers.
Busch will head to the bench as the Cubs roll out a right-handed-heavy lineup to counter Brewers southpaw Robert Gasser. BJ Murray will get the nod at first base in place of Busch.
