Hoerner (general soreness) won't return during the Cubs' final series of the regular season, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Hoerner hasn't been placed on the 10-day injured list, but he confirmed Thursday that he's shifting his focus toward returning to full health for the offseason. The 24-year-old appeared in 44 major-league games during the 2021 campaign and hit .302 with 16 RBI, 13 runs and five stolen bases. Sergio Alcantara should continue to serve as the primary shortstop to close out the regular season.
