Pregame Chatter: Cubs @ Angels Lineup; Hendricks Pitching, Zobrist at Shortstop
The Cubs travel to Tempe Diablo Stadium today to take on the Aneheim Angels at 3:10 CDT. Joe has Ben Zobrist at shortstop today, which is a position that Ben has played before, albeit the last time was 2014. Jason Heyward, after being attacked by a bee swarm and given super-hero powers, is back in the lineup again today. Seriously though, that is one tough dude. I would’ve completely embarrassed myself if I was attacked by bees…I’d still be running and wailing.
