Andrew McCutchen homered, doubled and walked twice against the Cubs on Wednesday. McCutchen was having a rather ho-hum season 10 days ago. Now he has six homers in June, taking his season total from four to 10 and his OPS from .862 to .976. Last year, he won MVP honors with a .911 OPS. Of course, McCutchen won't be MVP again unless his teammates join him in playing a whole lot better, but he's just as valuable as ever.

Andrew McCutchen went 2-for-3 with a walk and two singles in Tuesday's loss to the Orioles. McCutchen put the Pirates up 1-0 in the third inning with an RBI single, but it was a lead his team would soon relinquish. McCutchen also drew another walk, pushing his league-leading total up to 35. He is now slashing .308/.431/.472. He slugged over .500 in each of the last two seasons, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him eventually cross that threshold with more time.
