Trevor Williams last pitched on May 26 and should have been in line to take the bump for the opening game of the series against the Padres, but he will be out of action for a while. That’s because the righty had an appendectomy Sunday, presumably of the unplanned variety, and will be out for an as-yet-undetermined period of time. That might not actually be the worst thing for the Cubs, who haven’t gotten consistent performance from their No. 5 starter thus far.
Trevor Williams had an appendectomy Sunday morning and will miss tomorrow's start.
