Cubs' Kyle Schwarber is batting seventh in Game 1

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber is starting in left field for Game 1 of the NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

Schwarber is getting the start in left field, and batting seventh against Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw in Game 1. Leadoff man Jon Jay moves to right field, so Jason Heyward heads to the bench.

Schwarber has played sparingly so far this postseason, going 1-for-5 with 1 walk and 1 run scored. Our models project him to score 6.7 FanDuel points off his $2,600 salary.
