Addison Russell

Cubs sit Addison Russell on Monday

Chicago Cubs infielder Addison Russell is not in the starting lineup on Monday.

What It Means:

Russell takes a seat to allow Javier Baez to make a start at short. They rotate regularly in the Chicago infield, so this is a typical day off.

Our models project Russell to hit .237 with 7 home runs, 27 runs, 29 RBI, and 2 stolen bases in 233 more plate appearances this year.
