Cubs' Ben Zobrist: Expects to return Monday or Tuesday

Zobrist (neck) said he expects to return to the lineup Monday or Tuesday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Analysis:

Zobrist described his neck as "unmanageable" last week, but he's been able to get in some pregame workouts the last few days. Despite Zobrist's confidence, the Cubs are worried the issue might linger into the beginning of the regular season, which could open up some starts at second base for Javier Baez until the veteran is fully healthy.
