Jason Heyward scratched from Sunday's lineup

The Cubs are starting to get the injury bug of late.

Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward was scratched from Sunday afternoon's contest against the Milwaukee Brewers with mid-back tightness.

Hopefully this is only a one game situation as he has been really hitting the ball well the last week.

Steven Souza Jr. will replace him in right field with Ian Happ and Kyle Schwarber taking the other outfield spots.

Check out the new lineup:
