Cubs' Kyle Schwarber: Getting time in right field

Schwarber has been getting playing time in right field this spring in an effort to get him ready for starts there during the season, MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

Specifically, Schwarber could play right field when the Cubs visit PNC Park in Pittsburgh, where right field is a bit smaller than left. This will reduce the amount of ground Schwarber has to cover in his return from two torn ligaments in his left knee. However, Schwarber will likely spend most of his time in left, with Jason Heyward patrolling right field.
