Twelve Cubs pitchers currently boast a 0.00 ERA in spring training, though only five of them have thrown more than a single inning. Just two more are under a 2.25 ERA, and both made starts Saturday across the Cubs’ split-squad twin bill. Kyle Hendricks had his mark pushed up to 1.00 on the strength of a leadoff homer by Francisco Lindor in one game, while Alec Mills ended the day at 0.93 after surrendering his first run of the spring in Vegas.
With all respect to The Professor, I was far more interested in how the bespectacled Mills graded on the curve.
