Starlin Castro may not be a starter for the Cubs anymore

Starlin Castro (3B - FA)

Starlin Castro is not in the Cubs starting lineup on Saturday for the second straight day.

Fantasy Impact
Joe Maddon indicated that Castro's shift to the bench was not just a day off, it's an effort to get Kyle Schwarber's bat in the lineup on a daily basis. Addison Russell has been a much better fielder as well and already shown a great glove in his small amount of time at shortstop. Chris Coghlan has had a hot bat recently too and will take over second base against right handed pitchers. It'll be interesting to see how Maddon inserts Castro's bat into the lineup, but there is no way he is keeping Schwarber on the bench with the way he has been hitting recently.
