CHICAGO - The Chicago Cubs activated Joc Pederson from the 10-day injured list on Monday, giving the slugger a chance to face his former team. Pederson was in the starting lineup for Chicago’s series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers, leading off and playing left field. The decision to send Thompson down keeps Hoerner on the roster after he was promoted when Pederson went on the IL last month. Kyle Hendricks will start Game 1 for the Cubs, and the team did not announce a starter for the nightcap. ___More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hun/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_SportsLoading...
