Patrick Wisdom riding pine Wednesday for Cubs
Chicago Cubs third baseman Patrick Wisdom is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale against right-hander Wil Crowe and the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The Cubs appear to be giving Wisdom a routine breather. Christopher Morel, who hit a pinch-hit solo home run in his first MLB at-bat on Tuesday, is replacing Wisdom on third base and batting eighth.
Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Cubs have an implied total of 4.39 and they are -164 favorites over the Pirates. The over/under for the game is 8.0.
