With just four games left this spring, the Chicago Cubs (15-11), have guaranteed that they’ll finish the Cactus League at least .500. Oh how sweet it would be if they started the regular season of this well.
Chicago Cubs Lineup:
- Nico Hoerner, 2B
- Edwin Rios, 3B
- Patrick Wisdom, LF
- Yan Gomes, C
- Mike Tauchman, CF
- Nick Madrigal, 1B
- Chris Morel, RF
- Miles Mastrobuoni, SS
- Zach McKinstry, DH
Hooray! Nico Hoerner is back from his very brief stint on the shelf with some bicep soreness. It didn’t seem particularly serious, but I’d be lying if I wasn’t clenching a bit, anxious to see how quickly he’d return. I think his presence in today’s lineup is a very good sign that all is well.
Other than that + Wisdom and Gomes, this is like a full-on “Last chance to earn your place on the active roster” group. Pick your poison, Cubs fans. These are your options.
Pitching Matchup:
Cubs: Roenis Elรยญas, LHP
