• Cubs' Kris Bryant: Breaks home-run drought

  1D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Bryant went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk Monday in the Cubs' 5-1 win over the Diamondbacks. The eighth-inning homer was Bryant's first since July 20, though a five-week stay on the disabled list due to a shoulder injury contributed heavily to the drought. Since being activated from the DL on Sept. 1, Bryant has ridden a 33.3 percent line-drive rate (his career rate is 22.1 percent) to a .320 average, but he hasn't been accompanying that stellar mark with much output in other categories. Bryant has managed only six extra-base hits (five doubles and a home run), eight runs, five RBI and no stolen bases in 14 starts on the month.

The 26-year-old is still seeking his first home run since returning from the disabled list Sept. 1, though he is slashing a solid .325/.391/.450 with three RBI and seven runs scored in his last 12 games.
