After going 0-4 with three strikeouts yesterday, Kris Bryant will sit in favor of tonight’s leadoff hitter Tommy La Stella. Maddon is likely trying to give the Cubs MVP another mental rest as his rough June continues (.307 wOBA, .107 ISO).

Heyward remains in the second spot in front of Ben Zobrist (3rd) and Tony Rizzo (4th). J-Hey also went 0-4 against the Reds yesterday, but his overall June numbers are still stellar (.
