April 20--PITTSBURGH -- There isn't any urge to move Starlin Castro back to the cleanup spot even after his recent surge.
Castro will remain in the sixth spot Monday night when the Chicago Cubs play the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park.
Castro is 4-for-10 in his past two games and is a lifetime .448 batter (13-for-29) against Pirates starter A.J. Burnett. Castro will bat behind catcher Miguel Montero, who is 3-for-5 against Burnett.
Castro has hit safely in nine of the Cubs' first 11 games.
Meanwhile, the Cubs open a stretch of 20 consecutive games against the National League Central, including 14 on the road.
Here's the Cubs' lineup:
Fowler cf
Soler rf
Rizzo 1b
Bryant 3b
Montero c
Castro ss
Coghlan lf
Arrieta p
Herrera 2b
