Ian Happ Sitting In Game 1 Of Wednesday's Doubleheader
3 years agoChicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ is not in the starting lineup for Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Colorado Rockies. Left-hander Austin Gomber is on the mound for the Rockies in the game. The left-handed Happ has struggled significantly against same-handed matchups this year. He has slashed just .162/.253/.297 against lefties while slashing .205/.314/.379 against righties. Patrick Wisdom is shifting over to cover Happ's usual left field post for Game 1 of the doubleheader. Right-hander German Marquez is starting Game 2 of the doubleheader, so it's safe to expect Happ will be back in the starting lineup for Game 2.
