Zack Greinke is 4-0 with a 2.98 ERA over his last five starts. The Cubbies do not plan to move Kyle Schwarber down in the order even though he is the worst leadoff batter in MLB. Michael Pineda is 3-1 with a 2.63 ERA over his last six outings.

The Cardinals are off to their worst start in franchise history, with the worst record in the National League. Their defense has made 10 errors in 11 games, and continuing to play Matt Adams shows they are not committed to improving their defense any time soon. Adams is hitting .167, so using him in left field ahead of Grichuk or Jose Martinez makes little sense.

David Dahl is waiting for the results of an MRI he had Friday. Well, we are still waiting for the results, I doubt he is. This is probably not a good sign because if all was good under the hood, the media would have been told about it. Maybe I am wrong, just take much caution on draft day as the best case scenario, according to Dahl himself, is that he will miss the first two weeks of the season.
