This will be Sogard’s third consecutive start at second base as he continues to be preferred to David Bote for the time being.

Neither player is hitting the baseball particularly well as Sogard is batting .136 while Bote is hitting .107 but has the only home run among the two players. Both players are not considered long-term options as it’s only a matter of time before Cubs prospect Nico Hoerner is expected to take over the position.
