With their struggles continuing, Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum has been toying around with different lineups recently to try to jumpstart the team's offense. Those maneuvers have continued for Sunday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, as only four starters from Saturday's game are getting the nod again.
Hoping to avoid the sweep, only shortstop Starlin Castro, catcher Geovany Soto, center fielder David DeJesus and left fielder Alfonso Soriano are starting for the second time in two days. Here's the Cubs' lineup:
#Cubs lineup @Dbacks 6/24: DeJesus CF, Johnson RF, Castro SS, Soriano LF, Baker 1B, Soto C, Barney 2B, Mather 3B, Garza P
