Ben Zobrist Resting on Saturday
6 years agoChicago Cubs veteran infielder Ben Zobrist is getting the day off on Saturday. Zobrist recently returned from a nagging hip injury, so it seems that the team is just trying to prevent re-injury. Javier Baez is getting the start at second base while David Bote is manning third. Bote is an interesting daily fantasy value play as he is batting in the cleanup spot behind Anthony Rizzo, the aforementioned Baez, and Jason Heyward. He should see ample opportunity to produce against Washington Nationals starter Tanner Roark and his 4.21 ERA.
