Chicago Cubs infielder Mike Freeman is starting on Monday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Javier Baez was scratched from the lineup with thumb soreness, so Freeman will get the start at shortstop for the defending champs. He's eighth in the order versus Pirates right-hander Chad Kuhl.
With a solid implied total (4.72 runs) on Monday, the Cubs offer some fantasy upside for DFS owners. Freeman is just 2-for-37 (.054) in the majors this season.
