Chirinos went 4-for-6 with two doubles, a solo home run and two runs scored in Friday's loss to the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Chirinos had his best game in a Cubs uniform, and it was just his second multi-hit performance of the season. The 37-year-old catcher should see more playing time in the near term with Willson Contreras (knee) on the injured list, though Chirinos shouldn't be expected to replicate Friday's line anytime soon considering he entered the contest batting just .184 this year through 24 games.

Chirinos is starting Thursday's game against Milwaukee.

Chirinos will likely serve as the Cubs' primary catcher going forward after Willson Contreras (knee) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, while Austin Romine (wrist) was reinstated from the 60-day IL to serve as another option behind the dish. The 37-year-old has gone 0-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts across the last two games.

Chirinos hit a solo home run in his only at-bat during Tuesday's 15-10 loss to Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

Chirinos' pinch-hit blast went to center field in the ninth inning, but the Cubs were unable to rally. The catcher began the year in the Yankees' organization with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He posted a career-worst .162/.232/.243 slash line in 82 plate appearances between the Mets and the Rangers last season. Chirinos will likely serve as Willson Contreras' backup at catcher going forward.

Chirinos signed a one-year contract with the Cubs on Monday, Patrick Mooney of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chirinos began the season with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and slashed .278/.422/.556 with three home runs, six RBI and six runs in 13 games. He was away from the minor-league club for several weeks in June to play with the Venezuelan national team, and he'll land a major-league contract a day after he was let go by the Yankees. The 37-year-old will serve as the Cubs' backup catcher after Taylor Gushue was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
