Amaya hit a home run in Friday's loss. Yan Gomes is back behind the plate for Chicago.

Miguel Amaya went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Cubs' 9-3 defeat to the Pirates.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the loss, Amaya's solo shot was one of the few highlights for the Cubs, marking his second homer of the season. His overall performance this season has been underwhelming with a .187 batting average and a .241 wOBA through 31 games. Fantasy managers should view Amaya as a low-end option, primarily in deeper leagues or two-catcher formats. His power display offers some upside, but his high strikeout rate and low batting average limit his appeal.

Miguel Amaya is in the Cubs lineup on Thursday against the Pirates.

Fantasy Impact

Amaya is back behind the plate and hitting No. 9 in the lineup. He is hitting .188 with 11 RBI so far this season.

Miguel Amaya is out of the Cubs’ starting lineup Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Amaya will get the day off for rest reasons. Yan Gomes will get the start behind the plate and bat eighth against the Padres.
