Homer Bailey (5-4, 5.60 ERA) vs. Ted Lilly (11-8, 3.17 ERA)
Story-linesThe Cubs blew a chance to gain a game on the Rockies last night, thanks in part to the erratic arm of Carlos Marmol. I know that some people think he's capable of being the team's next closer, but his inability to regularly throw a strike makes that a bad idea.
