Cubs @ Marlins: Arrieta vs Locke (Game 72)

CHC (36-35): RHP Jake Arrieta (6-5, 4.64)
MIA (32-38): LHP Jeff Locke (0-2, 4.58)
First pitch: 6:10pmCST

Arrieta took the loss in Pittsburgh on Saturday (4.2 IP, 2 ER, 7 K, 2 BB). He beat the Marlins at Wrigley earlier this month, holding them to 2 ER over 6 innings. For their careers, they are 9-52 (.173) against him. Stanton is 2-8 with a HR.

Jake has been dealing with a nasty thumb cut/blister issue since Spring Training. If the Cubs had any depth, he might have been on the DL for it by now. When Hendricks comes back, maybe they want to shut him down to let it heal.
