The Chicago Cubs have another healthy roster problem. Earlier, this season, Matt Szczur became the odd man out. Now, it might be infielder Tommy La Stella‘s turn. There’s one main reason why: Ian Happ.
The Cubs are already in a situation where they need to find playing time for guys like Javier Baez, Albert Almora, and Jon Jay. That has been even more complicated with Ian Happ in the lineup everyday. That does not bode well for Tommy LaStella.
Acquired by the Cubs in November 2014 for pitcher Arodys Vizcaino, LaStella has bounced back and forth between the big-league team and Triple-A Iowa.
