Chicago Cubs Lineup: Contreras at First Base, Baez Cleaning Up
The Cubs’ bats blew up in a big way yesterday, and here’s the group that’ll try to keep the good times going.
Chicago Cubs Lineup v. Seattle Mariners (Wade Miley):
- Dexter Fowler, CF
- Kris Bryant, 3B
- Ben Zobrist, LF
- Javy Baez, 2B
- Addison Russell, SS
- Jason Heyward, RF
- Willson Contreras, 1B
- Miguel Montero, C
- Jake Arrieta, P
Anthony Rizzo gets the day off against the lefty, with Willson Contreras filling in at first base.
Javy Baez gets a chance to bat cleanup, which makes plenty of sense since he’s been destroying lefties this year (and, in general, is just crushing the ball right now).
We’ll have a full Pre-Gamin’ for you closer to game time.
