(10:00) Hayden Wesneski has another stellar showing for the Cubs, striking out five over five innings against the Diamondbacks on Thursday. He did not allow an earned run (2.12 ERA, 22:6 K:BB in 17 spring innings). (12:50) Alex Cobb (knee) might miss the start of the season. Took a comebacker off his knee back on March 11. Jhoan Duran threw an inning in Thursday’s Grapefruit League game, returning from a sore leg, the result of a comebacker in a minor-league game. Yordan Alvarez (hand) hitless in his spring debut Thursday. NFBC Main Event: Clay's Team: https://twitter.com/claywlink/status/1639094100296122368 Joe Musgrove (toe) is my ace. He threw three innings in a simulated game Thursday. Went with the two ace relievers instead.
