"That would bode well for outfielder Angel Pagan and ill for reliever Michael Wuertz, who gave up 2 home runs in the fifth inning against the Royals."

Wuertz takes a turn for the worse on ChicagoSports.com

"Piniella previously had said Michael Wuertz was on the team, but Wuertz served up home runs on back-to-back pitches in the fifth inning and may be on his way to Triple-A Iowa to build up arm strength."

Daily Herald | Chicago Cubs Notes

"Lou Piniella went by the merit system after all. Wade Miller merited a spot in the starting rotation, so Piniella officially awarded him the fifth spot Tuesday. "

Cubs feel sound on mound :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Cubs

"Forget Kerry Wood and Mark Prior (and judging from e-mails, a lot of Cubs fans already have). There might not have been room on the Cubs' roster for the former co-aces, regardless of their problematic shoulders. "

Daily Herald | Chicago Cubs Notes

"Cubs manager Lou Piniella made it official today: Wade Miller is the team's fifth starting pitcher. Miller beat out Mark Prior, who will start Wednesday against the Colorado Rockies at HoHoKam Park. "

Piniella chooses Miller over Prior on ChicagoSports.com

"Mark Prior's start Wednesday at HoHoKam Park will be his last in a Cubs uniform for quite a while. Manager Lou Piniella confirmed Tuesday that Wade Miller has sewn up the fifth starter's spot, leaving no room for Prior on the 25-man roster."
