A trio of Chicago Cubs players were named Silver Slugger finalists on Wednesday.
Silver Slugger Awards honor the best offensive player at each position in both the National League and American Leagues, and three Cubs players were named finalists, including outfielders Pete Crow-Armstrong and Kyle Tucker.
Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner was also named a finalist at second base, giving him a chance at winning both a Gold Glove for his defense and a Silver Slugger for his bat.
Crow-Armstrong could also pull off the double after a solid sophomore season with the Cubs.
