Less than three weeks into the season, the Chicago Cubs must overcome another injury blow to a key player — Seiya Suzuki.
Chicago Cubs’ Seiya Suzuki swings at a pitch during an at-bat against the Seattle Mariners during the eighth inning on Sunday, April 14, 2024, in Seattle.
Less than three weeks into the season, the Chicago Cubs must overcome another injury blow to a key player. The Cubs placed right fielder Seiya Suzuki on the 10-day injured list with a right oblique strain prior to Monday’s series opener in Arizona. Outfielder Alexander Canario has been recalled from Triple-A Iowa.
Suzuki, 29, missed roughly six weeks in 2023 when he sustained a left oblique strain during spring training. Suzuki’s absence is a big loss after a strong start to the season. His 139 OPS+ ranks second among Cubs starters behind Michael Busch , displaying an aggressive yet balanced approach in the No. 2 spot of the order.
Suzuki is the fourth notable player currently on the IL for the Cubs, joining left-hander Justin Steele , reliever Julian Merryweather and right-hander Jameson Taillon , though Taillon is expected to return this week to the rotation.“What he’s done is he’s starting to use that as a strength,” hitting coach Dustin Kelly said Sunday of Suzuki’s aggressiveness.
