Javier Baez returns to the lineup for the Cubs on Thursday
Chicago Cubs second baseman Javier Baez is back in the lineup against the Miami Marlins on Thursday.
What It Means:
Baez got the day off on Wednesday, but he'll be back at second base tonight while Ian Happ moves to left field in place of Kyle Schwarber, who was sent down to Triple-A earlier today. Baez will bat seventh against Marlins' southpaw Jeff Locke.
numberFire's models project Baez for 9.8 FanDuel points tonight, and with a 38.1% hard-hit rate against left-handed pitching on the year he offers solid value while priced at $2,400.
