MIAMI – Cubs rookie Luis Vázquez moved from third base to shortstop Saturday afternoon, taking ground balls at multiple positions after most of the team had retreated to the clubhouse after batting practice.

“I’m just here to help contribute to the team, make that playoff push,” Vázquez said Saturday afternoon. “Whatever the manager decides, whatever position, I’m just here to play in whatever capacity and really help the team to make the playoffs.”

Though a trip to the postseason may not be likely, the Cubs’ three-game winning streak has helped improve their chances.
