The Cubs are squaring off against the A’s today at their old Spring stomping grounds, Hohokam Stadium.
Jon Lester is taking the ball for the good guys, and he’ll be countered by righty Aaron Brooks. The Cubs lineup is led by Ian Happ, starting in center field, David Bote, at third base, and Anthony Rizzo and Willson Contreras (at their usual spots around the diamond).
Addison Russell is getting in another start at shortstop. And Mark Zagunis, whose chance of breaking camp with the big league team ticked up a bit with news of Daniel Descalso’s injury, is getting a start out in right today.
