Some prospects that will not start on time and not assigned to any roster yet: Kevin Alcantara (Late to camp, Visa issues) - Should be in Myrtle Beach in a couple weeks Jordan Nwogu (Nursing a minor injury) - South Bend when returns, no ETA Braylin Marquez (Late to camp due to COVID) Should be in Iowa rotation beginning of May? There are likely more, but the 3 I heard about so far. Read that Marquez is "day to day". Slated to next see him in regular season MLB action in 2028.

Is it just my own faulty eye sight or does he somewhat resemble KB from that picture?

Maybe one day he will actually pitch again.

South Bend Roster: Espinoza / Estrada / Franklin / Herz / Palencia / Wicks / Nahas / Clarke / Bain Howard / Aliendo / Cassie / Canario / Pinango / Sierra How can THIS team not win it all? Look at that Pitching! Espinoza also listed on Tennessee Roster (The Smokies' website doesn't include the newly announced roster). www.milb.com/south-bend/news/sbcubs-opening-night-roster-22

right? Maybe one day he will actually pitch again. Go ahead, laugh... We'll see Marquez has nothing but bad luck, catching COVID the same identical time 2 years in a row. Hopefully he will be back around early to mid May and at least getting innings in the bullpen later in the year in Chicago.

Climbed the ladder and was under it (K). 2nd PA - Scorches liner foul, down 3rd. Smashes another liner into a shift. Diving catch by SS. 3rd PA - Scorches liner foul, down 3rd. Ahead on a change - Pool cue foul. Fooled again on high breaker (K) 4th PA - Takes bender (Strike). Full swing at another bender - just misses (pop foul). Chases high bender (K). 63 Degrees - Cloudy / Windy. Suppertime Start. 1st PA - Skies Foul into wind - Barely missing. 97mph - fouled straight back. Lays off bender (SB). Lays off another. WP - (BB) (1st and 3rd) Cubs score 1. 2nd PA - (Follows RBI Single) Fastball - Inside. Curve - High. Takes borderline - Strike. Takes bender - Way Away. Slider almost hits him in foot (BB). Cubs score 2. 3rd PA - (Dusk) Takes bender - Strike. Skies bender straight back. Lays off bender. Check swing bender - Called swing (He did - K). 4th PA - (Leads off). Jammed and fouled. Takes - inside. Takes (SB). Swings hard at Slider - Miss. Same pitch - Chopped foul. Same Pitch but high. Chases (K). 5th PA - (Pouring Rain & Windy) Chases Slider - Strike (announcer states that Davis is committing too early). Takes 2 close ones. Slider disappears. Swinging Strike 2. Fastball paints corner. Freezes Davis. Called (K) All in all... For an 0fer, he looked decent. Maybe a little too eager. Got good (full) swings. Didn't chase in dirt (mostly). Just missed - several times. Very few Fastballs.

These guys could be a big part of the bullpen as soon as this year, Roberts is already up.
Kobos Leeper Marquez Roberts Ueckert Carraway
These guys have the potential to make the Cubs bullpen most DOMINATE in baseball and able to shorten games for the starters too and I did not even all the guys either.
Future looks bright
