2023 Cubs player profiles: Mike Tauchman

Related Topics: Mike Tauchman, Chicago Cubs

Michael Robert Tauchman is a 32-year-old lefthanded hitter with decent speed and a little power. He’s not quite adequate for a full-time job but he does well in the pinch, or that’s seemingly the wisdom regarding Tauchman, who has logged just about a full season’s worth of time in six years in and out of major-league ball.

His aggregate slash: .232/.327/.378. He was up for half of a season with the Yankees (2019) and acquitted himself well, hitting .277 with 13 home runs and 47 RBI, but he hasn’t seen that much time with another club.
