Trey McNutt reportedly had to leave today's Tennessee game due to injury. No word on what happened.

That's bad.

So does that mean we can stop automatically assuming Aaron was "all natural?" Because that would be awesome. Oddly enough, Aaron's career arc matches up surprisingly well with other known PED users. Steroids and other PEDs were available when he was playing, so it wouldn't be particularly surprising if it turned out he used.

If the offense can click for the next month while the Cubs figure out what's going on with Wells and Cashner, this team might be on to something.

Vitters starting at 1B in Tennessee with LeMahieu at 3B. Burgess with another HR. Jeff Antigua started the suspended Peoria game and promptly got hammered.

Oswalt, imo. The next Lincecum is Trevor Bauer when the Cubs draft him.

Kevin Goldstein's Future Shock Given the weather and his bout with mono, 94 is good to hear with Simpson. Apparently his breaking stuff was on last night, too.

Converting to pitcher; apparently he has a good arm and is a lefty. You're not serious, are you? http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_TufJDWGvofw/TPOXu9XWDuI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/RzonXxGjsvk/s1600/nielsen.jpg Link

Converting to pitcher; apparently he has a good arm and is a lefty. Working through some injury issues I think.

Tennessee's lineup: CF Jackson, B LF Flaherty 2B LeMahieu RF Spencer 3B Vitters C Clevenger 1B Ridling SS Gonzalez, Ma P Rusin

Opening night lineup for Daytona: 2B Watkins, L 3B Cerda CF Ha 1B Bour DH Castillo, W LF Burgess C Brenly RF Perez, N SS Lake

He had mono either when or shortly after he was drafted. He's spent most of the offseason getting back into shape. He will be the opening day starter for Peoria. Also Peoria.

Aside from the injury, how did Cashner look today? I saw online his fb was comfortably in the 90s and his slider had some really nice low and away action to righties. Here's hoping he makes a full recovery in a short amount of time.

On the upside, Garza looked pretty solid today.

I still think they were told to attack Maholm early in the count today, at least in their first ABs. And it worked because they were smoking the ball...just at the Pirates. They worked the count fairly well on Opening Day. Right. Maholm was serving those pitches up and it would have been foolish to not take swings at them. Plus it didn't seem like he was working much outside the zone. The guy was working over the plate a good portion of the day. The main problem was that the Cubs weren't getting particularly good swings on a lot of his pitches. It didn't seem like Maholm was going to give up a whole lot of walks today.
