Anthony Rizzo Leading Off Thursday
5 years agoChicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo is the leadoff hitter on Thursday as the team is shaking things up a bit. Kyle Schwarber is in the three-hole for the first time all season and Kris Bryant hits cleanup for just the second time. Ian Happ is also making his first start since September 3, while Victor Caranti is catching. The Cubs are facing San Diego Padres starting pitcher Dinelson Lamet. Lamet has been uneven in 11 starts since returning from Tommy John surgery, and so Rizzo and Schwarber are solid DFS options as they also have a platoon advantage.
