Patrick Wisdom - Day off Friday Wisdom is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox.
Impact The stretch run for the Cubs will be all about auditioning players to see who deserves to be part of the club's future. Wisdom has made a strong case for himself in his 62 games already this season, homering 16 times while slashing .272/.335/.572, though his 37.9 percent strikeout rate casts doubt on the sustainability of that line. He looks set to continue featuring frequently over the final two months following the team's deadline-day moves, though it will be Frank Schwindel and Matt Duffy who start at the infield corners Friday.
