Tepesch may lose spot upon Biagini return

CHICAGO -- Right-hander Nick Tepesch limited the Cubs' offence to a pair of runs in Saturday's 4-3 loss, but it likely wasn't enough to keep his spot in Toronto's starting rotation.

Right-hander Joe Biagini is expected to rejoin the Blue Jays in the near future, possibly as early as the middle of next week. When Biagini returns, he'll take the the starting job of either Tepesch or rookie right-hander Chris Rowley, and based on recent results, it seems to be a clear-cut choice.

Rowley has allowed three earned runs over 10 1/3 innings during two starts for Toronto.
