Worth noting

• There are no plans to have Junior Lake play anywhere but outfield with the Cubs for the rest of this season.

Lake came up as an infielder, but when he was called up from Triple-A Iowa, he was inserted into the outfield because of injuries.

"Right now, with our personnel, he's not playing third base," Sveum said.

• Scott Baker begins his second rehab stint with hopes of getting into a Major League game next month. Baker is rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. Rain interrupted his scheduled starts.

"The only limitation is health," said Epstein.

• The Cubs are lacking impact players at the catching position in the Minor Leagues. Epstein said they have talked about converting a few kids to catcher, and have targeted three players. That will begin this fall during instructional league.
