With a lefty, Jose Quintana, on the mound today for the Pirates, Nelson Velázquez is getting the start in right field over Jason Heyward and all three Cubs catchers are getting into the game: Willson Contreras behind the plate, P.J. Higgins at first base, and Yan Gomes at DH.
There are no lefties in today’s lineup. Let’s see if it works.
As usual, we’ll have your full Pre-Gamin’ post closer to game time (11:35 am CT).
