UNITED STATES – B.J. Murray Jr. is off to a scorching start to the 2026 Triple-A season with the Iowa Cubs and is continuing to make his case for a major league opportunity in the Chicago Cubs organization.

Murray’s recent hit streak was highlighted by Wednesday’s game, when he went 3-for-5 with two doubles, three RBIs, and three runs scored while batting in the leadoff spot.

Through 19 games, he is hitting .373 with a .462 on-base percentage and a .750 slugging percentage, for a 1.119 OPS.

The switch-hitting corner infielder also had four home runs and 16 RBIs, emerging as one of the hottest bats in the Cubs’ farm system.
