Chicago Cubs Set Target Date for Activation of Injured Star Shortstop

The Chicago Cubs seem to be getting an important piece back in the mix as they have targeted a return date for one of their star players.

Injuries have been prevalent throughout the early portion of the year and have forced him to dip into their reserves and pipeline to field a competent team as they chase NL Central success.

However, things have started to slow down a bit for the Cubs after they got off to a great start. They are 4-6 over their last 10 games and there is major concern about their offensive profile after some worrisome struggles at home. Swanson has struggled at the plate this year with a slash line of .209/.285/.341 that would easily be the worst of his career. He's also hit four homers and has 12 RBI through his 37 games, not exactly the production the Cubs were expecting from their $177 million man.
