Chicago Cubs SP Jason Hammel yielded one run on five hits in seven innings of work against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday, July 27. He walked two and struck out seven while improving to 10-5.

Fantasy Tip: Hammel has allowed two runs or less in five of his last six starts and just logged his third consecutive "W." He has been a consistent performer this season and is someone that should be a fixture in your fantasy rotation.

Chicago Cubs SP Jason Hammel ended a four-game losing streak with a masterful six-inning effort against the Texas Rangers on Saturday, July 16, allowing one run on three hits while striking out seven for his first victory since June 4.

Fantasy Tip: While Hammel did have a horrific outing against the New York Mets (surrendered 10 runs in four innings) on July 1, he received little to no run support during his slide. The cramping issue in his right hand that bothered him in his last start did not appear to be an issue either. Hammel should be a fine fantasy start in all formats Friday in Milwaukee against the Brewers.

Chicago Cubs SP Jason Hammel (thumb) suffered cramping in his pitching thumb and had to leave his start Thursday, July 7, against the Atlanta Braves.

Fantasy Tip: Hammel will get some natural rest with the All-Star break, and in his defense it was quite humid following a rain delay. Don't read too much into this injury and continue to utilize him as a starter in all formats.
