Chicago Cubs – Kyuji Fujikawa returned from the DL last night and threw a scoreless inning. He will take over as the primary 8th inning guy and could return to the closer’s role once Kevin Gregg remembers that he is Kevin Gregg. Hierarchy change: Kyuji Fujikawa to Set-up, James Russell to 2nd in line.

Arizona Diamondbacks — Heath Bell was given the night off, as predicted, and David Hernandez picked up the save. Heath Bell is still the guy to own for now but Hernandez has shown that he can close if Bell struggles. No hierarchy change.
