Chicago Cubs Lineup: Lester on the Hill, Coghlan in Left
The Chicago Cubs (61-40) are 8-5 since the All-Star break and are hoping to build some momentum as they come off two big wins over White Sox.
Jon Lester (10-4, 3.09 ERA) will be the first man tasked with trying to make that happen. His last outing against the Brewers didn’t last long – only 4 innings to be exact – but the Cubs managed to rally with five runs in the seventh inning to pull out the win.
Chris Coghlan returns today for the Cubs and he’ll lead off and play left field.
