Ben Zobrist will lead off at second with Kris Bryant batting second but playing left field after his weekend off. Bryant has been lunging at the ball and falling out of his typical sterling mechanics, so maybe the change of scenery will help. Anthony Rizzo is batting third, Javy Báez cleans up at short, and Jason Heyward mans right.
Willson Contreras is catching, David Bote is at third, and Albert Almora Jr. is batting eighth with a righty on the mound. But this particular righty has a very heavy reverse-split profile, allowing 130 more OPS points and 49 more wOBA points to right-handed batters.
