Yadiel Rivera starting at second for Brewers against Cubs
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Yadiel Rivera is starting at second base on Thursday afternoon against the Chicago Cubs.
Rivera should get regular playing time at second while Scooter Gennett recovers from an oblique strain. The 23-year-old hit well in last year's Arizona Fall League and carried that over into Cactus League play.
Rivera is 5-for-23 (.217/.250/.348) with a .446 wOBA to open the 2016 season.
