Joc Pederson is leading off in left as the Cubs return home, followed by Kris Bryant in right, Javier Báez at short, and Anthony Rizzo at first. Willson Contreras is behind the plate, Patrick Wisdom is at third base, Ian Happ is in center, and Sergio Alcántara is at second
Zach Davies has been a very different pitcher over his last nine starts from the one we saw in five April starts over which he posted a 9.47 ERA with at least two earned runs allowed in each.
