Ben Zobrist starting on second base Monday for Cubs

Chicago Cubs second baseman/outfielder Ben Zobrist is starting on Monday versus the Chicago White Sox.

What It Means:

Javier Baez is moving over to shortstop while Addison Russell gets a breather, opening up second base for Zobrist, who will bat sixth versus White Sox right-hander Miguel Gonzalez.

Gonzalez owns a 4.89 ERA, 13.3 strikeout percentage, and 8.2 percent walk rate this season, so he could be a pitcher to attack in a contest where the Cubs are heavy favorites who project to benefit from a promising park factor (1.025). numberFire's models expect Zobrist to score 8.6 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,000.
