Nico Hoerner went 0-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base on Friday as the Cubs dropped a 4-2 decision to the Astros.
Fantasy Impact: Hoerner walked and stole second in the third inning off of Astros' starter Spencer Arrighetti. It was Hoerner's 10th stolen base of the season, tying him for seventh in the National League. Hoerner has been in a month-long slump, batting just .203 (15-for-74) with five doubles, four RBI, and three stolen bases. He has, however, struck out just four times all month, so one has to believe that the hits will start coming again soon.

Fantasy Impact: Mesa will likely take the roster spot of Jonny DeLuca, who is expected to be placed on the injured list. He'll add depth in the outfield for Tampa Bay.
