Cubs second baseman Javier Baez is not in the lineup for the game Thursday against Pittsburgh, Jesse Rogers of ESPNChicago.com reports.
Tommy La Stella will get the start at second with Addison Russell sliding in at shortstop for Baez, who will sit after reaching base safely in six of his last eight games.
