It’s been known for a while that the Chicago Cubs need help in their bullpen due to Pedro Strop and Brandon Morrow‘s absence. But what about the professional at-bats from Ben Zobrist?
Offensively, the Cubs have had no problems all season. Willson Contreras is arguably the best catcher in all of baseball as he enters Tuesday with a 1.9 fWAR, second to only J.T. Realmuto. Anthony Rizzo is playing better than any position player right now, Javier Baez has a better slash line than he did last season and the rest are doing enough to help the Cubs score runs.
