The Cubs (42-18) take on the Braves (18-43) in the series finale from Turner Field. Jon Lester (7-3, 2.08) goes against John Gant (0-0, 6.17). Go Cubs Go.
**Tommy LaStella was placed on the 15-day DL with a hamstring strain. Chris Coghlan was aquired from Oakland for Arismendy Alcantara. Cogs batted .250 in 148 games for the Cubs last season.

Back to back college RHP starters.
Miller, Tyson
California Baptist University
RHP
Bats: RThrows: RClass: JRDOB: 07/29/95 Height: 6'4" Weight: 195
It can be hard sometimes for pitchers at small programs to get noticed by the scouting industry. Pitching extremely well in the Cape Cod League, as Miller did last summer, made everyone put Division II California Baptist on their must-see destinations this spring. For the most part, Miller backed up his Cape showing with a strong junior season. The fact that he his starts came largely on Wednesdays or Thursdays actually helped him get seen more, as it didn't conflict with Division I weekend series. Tall and projectable, with loose actions and a lean, athletic body, the 6-foot-4 Miller will flash a fastball up to 93 mph, with the potential for more once he gets into a player development system. He'll show glimpses of a decent slider and has an average changeup to round out his three-pitch arsenal. Miller tends to throw strikes, though he is more control over command at this point. The earliest a Cal Baptist player has ever been drafted was in 2014, when the Dodgers took Trevor Oaks in the seventh round. Miller's size and upside potential give him the chance to beat Oaks by a couple of rounds.

Cubs should immediately deal Cogs for Valbuena. Get a third inning single to center in May? #Valbuenatime
Posted on 6/10/16 at 2:17 pm to BCMCubs
Joseph Bats has nothing on Valbuena.

You can't catch him. Too fast.

164 Clark, Bailey Duke RHP Bats: RThrows: R Class: Jr DOB: 12/03/94 Height: 6'4"Weight: 220
After producing just one top-three-rounds pitcher (Scott Schoeneweis) in the first 47 Drafts, Duke has had two in the past four years with Marcus Stroman and Michael Matuella. The Blue Devils had a chance for another in Clark, who starred in brief stints in the Cape Cod League and with the U.S. collegiate national team last summer. He looked like a possible first-rounder when he showed a mid-90s fastball while allowing a total of three runs in his first three starts this spring, but then his velocity and command dipped and he found himself out of the weekend rotation by mid-April. Clark was on scouts' radar when he went undrafted as a North Carolina high schooler in 2013, and his stuff has picked up as he has matured physically in college. His fastball can reach 99 mph and features nasty run and sink when it's at his best, and he has made strides with his 83-86 mph slider that also can be overpowering at times. However, there's a significant amount of effort in his delivery, which makes it tough for him to maintain his velocity and locate his pitches. Evaluators don't love Clark's arm action either, and a growing number believe he's destined for the bullpen in pro ball. He wouldn't have to worry about pacing himself or having to be as fine with his pitches in shorter stints, and he might have closer upside if he improved the consistency of his breaking ball. If he's going to stay in the rotation, he'll need to improve his changeup.
