4. Jason Heyward RF

5. Tommy La Stella 3B

6. Kyle Schwarber LF

It will be a pitching battle between 'Q' (10-8, 4.28 ERA) and righty Jhoulys Chacin (11-4, 3.91).

David Bote, Addison Russell, and Albert Almora Jr. all get the day on the bench but look for Bote and others to pinch-hit if the game warrants it.
