Cubs outfielder Kyle Tucker, whose production at the plate has plummeted since July, was diagnosed in June with a hairline fracture in his hand.

Tucker, whose gaudy early-season numbers helped turn Chicago into one of the most exciting teams in baseball, slashed just .218/.380/.295 in July. He has been even worse in August, posting a .148/.233/.148 slashline in 15 games. His last extra-base hit came on July 30.
