Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell announces exciting time-table for Seiya Suzuki retrun
The Chicago Cubs were forced to start the 2026 MLB regular season without the player they believed would be their everyday right fielder. During the World Baseball Classic, Seiya Suzuki suffered a knee injury while he was sliding into second base. As a result, he was unable to start the year on the Cubs Opening Day roster.
While it is still early, Chicago is 2-3 and in last place of the National League Central Division. They are coming off a game in which they were shutout by the Los Angeles Angles 2-0. Indeed, offense has been a bit of a concern for the Cubs in the early going.
Fortunately, help is on the way.
Chicago Cubs manager reveals likely timeline for Seiya Suzuki return
It was recently revealed that Suzuki was nearing return. Now, it is being reported that he will soon be heading out on a rehab assignment, one that is going to last just 3-7 days:
#Cubs Seiya Suzuki will begin his rehab assignment on Friday with Double-A Knoxville. Craig Counsell expects his assignment to be between 3-7 days.

Last season, Suzuki had the best season of his MLB career, hitting .245/.326/.478 with 32 home runs and 103 RBI. It was the first time in his Cubs tenure that he hit more than 30 home runs and had 100 or more RBI.
That being said, his batting average and on-base percentage was well-below his career norms. This season marks the final year of his contract with Chicago, and he will have to perform well if he wants them to bring him back in 2027.
Bringing in a power bat to an offense that has been inconsistent thus far this year will certainly help.
