[adinserter block=”2″]The Javier Baez rotation tour continues, with a move around the infield to shortstop. Baez will give Addison Russell a day off:
- Dexter Fowler, CF
- Jason Heyward, RF
- Ben Zobrist, 2B
- Anthony Rizzo, 1B
- Kris Bryant, 3B
- Jorge Soler, LF
- Javier Baez, SS
- David Ross, C
- Jon Lester, P
Assuming Baez can stay focused appropriately on the development of his bat, then his ability to do this kind of rotating-resting is going to be invaluable to the Cubs come August and September. I like it a lot.
Jason Heyward and Ben Zobrist get back in there today, and David Ross draws another start with Jon Lester on the mound. Rockies righty Tyler Chatwood is split-neutral for his career, for what it’s worth.
Here’s your full Pre-Gamin’ post for today’s game.
