Tyler Chatwood vs. Mike Trout, the matchup everyone has been praying for since realizing the Cubs were playing the AL West this season. Okay, not really, but that may very well be the case as the deposed Cubs starter gets another crack at the rotation in place of Jon Lester. We had presumed as much since Monday and the Wednesday call-up of Tim Collins virtually iced it, but Joe Maddon confirmed the replacement ahead of Wednesday’s game.
”We have Chatwood situated for Sunday,” Maddon said.
The manager wouldn’t commit to anything beyond that, saying there’s no “finish line” for Lester.
