CUBS PROBABLE STARTER: Jon Leicester (0-2, 7.50 ERA). Leicester is getting recalled from Triple-A Iowa to start in Dempster's place. The 26-year-old Leicester will makes his first major league start after 37 appearances out of the bullpen. The right-handed hurler has given up six runs in six innings in his five appearances this season.

He's a reliever but turned starter today due to Wood being on the DL and Dempster being chosen as the new closer.

I look for him to go 5 innings at the most. Bullpen was rested with Zambrano going the distance yesterday, so Baker won't have to worry about using his pen tonight.

Hope that helps a bit.
