Cubs' Javier Baez (thumb) to get an MRI Saturday
Chicago Cubs infielder Javier Baez will undergo an MRI on his injured left thumb Saturday.
What It Means:
Baez suffered the injury last Sunday sliding into second base. He was prepared to play on Thursday but was scratched at the last minute as the injury was still giving him problems. He is not expected to play in this weekend's series with the Milwaukee Brewers.
Baez is batting .281 with 29 homers, 85 RBI, and 88 runs scored in 560 plate appearances this season.
