Chicago Cubs Lineup (9/22/23): Tauchman Leads Off, Young DH, Mastrobuoni at 3B, Taillon Starting

Jameson Taillon hasn’t pitched in nine days because the day off following the sweep in Arizona allowed David Ross to use his top arms against the Pirates. In losses. Hindsight tells us the Cubs might as well have used Taillon, but that’s not really worth examining at this point. All that matters now is that this team figures out how to win more than one game at a time again.

David Ross is rolling with more or less the same lineup we’ve seen over the last two games, with Mike Tauchman leading off in center. Nico Hoerner bats and plays second, Ian Happ is in left, Cody Bellinger is at first, and Dansby Swanson plays short.
