Cubs' Jason Heyward: Sits Sunday against a southpaw

Heyward is out of the lineup Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

Analysis:

The Cubs are facing lefty Patrick Corbin on Sunday, so manager Joe Maddon has made every effort to rid his lineup of left-handed bats, which includes giving Heyward his first day off in more than a week. In his stead, Matt Szczur will get the start in right field.
