Cubs - Called up Leicester
Recalled P John Leicester; optioned P Roberto Novoa to Iowa.
The Cubs called up Leicester in time to make last night’s rainy start against the Mets, with Novoa (who I believe had the honor of first pitcher caught under drug-testing if you consider that Turnbow’s was a technicality) sent down to make room. Both before and after the rain delay, it was an ugly start for Leicester and he was very fortunate to even escape his scoreless 3rd inning without a run allowed. But, then again, they did tell him that he was replacing The Dumpster, so he might have felt compelled to put on a show equal to that of the garbage receptacle-cum-pitcher.
