Fantasy Impact

Amaya will receive the afternoon off for rest reasons, with Christian Bethancourt batting ninth and filling in behind the plate at catcher for manager Craig Counsell against the Marlins Sunday.

Miguel Amaya went 3-for-4 with a double and scored twice in the Cubs' dominant 14-2 victory over the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

This performance marks a bright spot in what has been a challenging season for Amaya, lifting his batting average slightly but still reflecting a need for improvement. His ability to contribute multiple hits in a game is a positive sign, but his overall power numbers and on-base skills remain areas of concern for fantasy managers. With a modest .284 wOBA and only seven homers over 92 games, Amaya's fantasy relevance is primarily in deeper leagues or those that highly value catcher eligibility.
