Joc Pederson is leading off in left field, Kris Bryant is in center, Javy Báez is in right, and Anthony Rizzo is at first. Willson Contreras is behind the plate, Jason Heyward has been activated and is in right, Patrick Wisdom is at third, and Eric Sogard is in right.
Nick Martini was designated for assignment to make room on the roster for Heyward.
Kohl Stewart looked great in his first Cubs start and it’d sure be nice to get a repeat in this one. The former No. 4 overall draft pick has all kinds of talent and said the Cubs’ development staff and overall vibe has really helped him since coming over.
