Top pitching prospect Caleb Kilian is back on the mound for the Cubs tonight at Wrigley Field, where he’ll make his second start of the season! Kilian’s first start went well enough (well it went very well, then he hit a wall, then he broke through it), but he’s got himself another tough matchup tonight against the Padres.
Let’s see if his combination of sinkers and cutters early (four-seamers and curveballs late) can help stop the bleeding on the Cubs 8-game losing streak.
