Chicago Cubs Lineup (9/21/24): Wisdom at DH for Third Straight Start, Hendricks Pitching

Of all the little storylines playing out as the Cubs toddle toward the end of the season, the most inexplicable to me is Patrick Wisdom suddenly getting starts all over the place. He was at first base on Thursday, third base yesterday, and now DH. It would be one thing if he were taking the place of struggling players, but Michael Busch is the reigning NL Player of the Week, Isaac Paredes has 14 hits in his last 11 games, and Seiya Suzuki has been excellent since moving into the primary DH role.
