Cubs' Anthony Rizzo: Batting third Monday

Rotowire• ·

Rizzo (wrist) is playing first base and batting third Monday against the Rockies.

Analysis:

It appears Rizzo isn't feeling any ill effects after getting plunked on the wrist by Aroldis Chapman during Sunday's loss to the Yankees. He wasn't forced to leave the game and X-rays afterwards came back negative, so it isn't too surprising to see him back out there. The 26-year-old is slashing .224/.353/.416 with six homers through 125 at-bats this season.
