Cubs' Tyler Chatwood having start moved up to Sunday

Chicago Cubs pitcher Tyler Chatwood will have his next start moved up to Sunday, according to Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune.

What It Means:

Chatwood wasn't expected to start until early next week against the Pittsburgh Pirates, but he's moving up with Yu Darvish (triceps) headed for the disabled list. He takes his spot in the rotation and will square off with the San Francisco Giants on Sunday night.

After being run early in his last start, Chatwood now sits at 3-4 with a 3.74 ERA and 5.34 xFIP through 9 starts this season.
