Leadoff continues to struggle

For the third straight offseason, the Cubs largely ignored the massive hole in the lineup that is the leadoff hitter. Since Dexter Fowler departed after the World Series season, the team has had a rotating ball of failure batting leadoff. Sunday, that failure continued, as the team tries to figure out who will attempt the job full time in 2019. Ben Zobrist got the call and proceeded to go 0-for-3 with a strikeout. He's having a lousy spring anyway, hitting just .192 so far.
