Why Michael Busch may be Cubs' most important hitter entering 2026

Posted Jan 18, 2026
His impressive breakout aside, the spotlight didn't shine on Michael Busch much in 2025. But as we look forward to 2026, Busch is set to become a more prominent figure for the team. In fact, he may be the most important hitter in the Cubs’ lineup. While others received more fanfare, it was Busch who finished 2025 as Chicago’s most productive hitter. (MLB.com)
