The Chicago Cubs have released their Wednesday lineup against the Nationals, and not listed is shortstop Javier Baez and first baseman, Anthony Rizzo.

It doesn’t appear Baez’s omission is injury-related, as it’s likely a scheduled day off. In Rizzo’s case, he couldn’t finish Tuesday’s game after experiencing tightness in his lower back.
Eric Sogard will fill in at shortstop for Baez, and Kris Bryant will take over at first base.
