Cubs' Ben Zobrist: Not in lineup Thursday

Zobrist is not in the lineup Thursday against the Dodgers, Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

Zobrist will get a rare day off as the Cubs go with Javier Baez at second base, while Kris Bryant shifts over to third. Expect Zobrist to return to action Friday when Chicago kicks off a three-game set at Wrigley against the Diamondbacks.
