Every Cubs fan wants to see Caleb Kilian succeed. We might disagree on whether that success should come as a starter or reliever, but he certainly has the talent to be a quality big league pitcher.
Kilian’s spring might be on hold for a while, as he left the game with an unspecified injury in the third inning of the Cubs’ 4-0 loss to the Royals Tuesday evening.

In my totally amateur analysis, it looked like he might have landed wrong on his leg. He walked off the field under his own power after consulting with the trainer and manager Craig Counsell.
