Cubs' Jon Berti: Tallies three more hits Saturday
Berti went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 10-4 loss to the Phillies.
After collecting two hits Friday, Berti tallied three singles Saturday to raise his season batting average to an even .300. The veteran utility player doesn't offer a ton of power, but he's seeing the ball well at the moment and has good speed with seven stolen bases in seven attempts this year.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Two hits in Friday's win
Berti went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 4-0 win over the Phillies.
Berti has emerged as Chicago's primary third baseman following the demotion of Matt Shaw, and he's provided decent production with a .250 average for the season. The veteran's greatest asset is his speed, as he has seven stolen bases in seven attempts, and he could run more often now that his playing time has increased.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Emerging as main third baseman
Berti will start at third base and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.
Berti will occupy third base for the third time in four games and looks to have at least temporarily emerged as the Cubs' preferred option at the position following the April 15 demotion of Matt Shaw. Rule 5 pick Gage Workman had previously represented Berti's top competition for playing time, but the Cubs designated Workman for assignment Wednesday and brought in veteran utility infielder Nicky Lopez in on a one-year deal in a corresponding move. Berti thus may have some work to do in order to build up job security, especially while he's maintained an underwhelming .250/.344/.250 slash line through his first 14 games of the season.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Starting Saturday
Berti is starting at third base and batting ninth in Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks.
Berti will be making just his sixth start of the season in Chicago's 23rd game. The 35-year-old has been used mostly as a bench player for the Cubs, and he's batting .238 with a .598 OPS and no home runs or runs scored, giving him limited fantasy appeal despite the six stolen bases.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Drawing start at third base
Berti will start at third base and bat ninth in Wednesday's game versus the Padres.
Gage Workman drew the first start at the hot corner Tuesday following the demotion of Matt Shaw, but it will be Berti getting the call Wednesday against right-hander Nick Pivetta. Cubs manager Craig Counsell will likely mix and match at third base until someone emerges.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Back to bench role
Berti is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.
Berti made a pair of starts at second base in the Cubs' season-opening series in Tokyo versus the Dodgers on March 18 and 19, but he's since shifted back to a utility role with Nico Hoerner (forearm) completing his recovery from flexor tendon surgery. The Cubs gave Hoerner an off day in Saturday's 4-3 win, which allowed Berti to pick up his lone start of the four-game series in Arizona.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Collects three hits, steal
Berti went 3-for-4 with a run and a stolen base during Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Dodgers in Tokyo.
The 35-year-old started the first two games of the season at second base with Nico Hoerner (forearm) unavailable. Chicago didn't provide much offense during the two-game set in Japan, but Berti was able to reach base four times and steal a pair of bases. He's expected to fill a utility role once Hoerner is healthy.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Could be temporary starter
With Nico Hoerner (forearm) set to miss the Cubs' two-game, season-opening series in Tokyo, Berti is an option to slide in as the starter at second base, Jesse Rogers of MLB.com reports.
The Cubs will face the Dodgers in Tokyo on March 18 and 19, and with Hoerner still recovering from flexor tendon surgery, the team won't rush him back for the quick set. Berti and Vidal Brujan could see time at second in the meantime, though Hoerner could be ready to go later in the month, which would push both players back to bench roles.

Cubs' Jon Berti: Signs with Northsiders
Berti signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the Cubs on Wednesday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
A calf injury limited Berti to just 25 regular-season games in 2024, during which he slashed .273/.342/.318 with six RBI and five stolen bases across 74 plate appearances with the Yankees. If healthy this season, the 35-year-old infielder has a path to semi-regular playing time in Chicago, which is facing some uncertainty at third base. However, he'll likely face some competition during spring training in the form of top prospect Matt Shaw.

Jon Berti: Let go by Yankees
The Yankees non-tendered Berti on Friday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Berti appeared in 25 games for the Yankees during the regular season, slashing .273/.342/.318 with six RBI over 74 plate appearances. The 34-year-old's defensive versatility and ability to reach base at a high rate should earn him some attention in free agency, though a full-time starting role is unlikely.

Yankees' Jon Berti: Battling hip injury
Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Berti was left off the Yankees' World Series roster due to a right hip flexor injury, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
The Yankees skipper noted that Berti's injury occurred while he was running the bases in Game 4 of the ALCS, and he would have been part of the roster had he not gotten hurt. Because of the utility man's absence, Nestor Cortes (elbow) will rejoin New York's roster to provide additional pitching depth for the World Series.

Yankees' Jon Berti: Absent from World Series roster
Berti is not on the Yankees' World Series roster.
Berti has made three starts at first base against lefties this postseason, but the Yankees have elected to carry Nestor Cortes (elbow) on their World Series roster instead. With Berti off the roster, the Yankees will either start Anthony Rizzo or Oswaldo Cabrera at first base versus left-handers.

Yankees' Jon Berti: Back at first base for Game 4
Berti is starting at first base and batting ninth Thursday in Game 4 of the ALDS in Kansas City, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
Berti received his first professional start at first base in Game 2 and will be back there in Game 4 as the Yankees try to close out the series. Oswaldo Cabrera -- who started Games 1 and 3 at first base -- will begin this contest on the bench.
