Pittsburgh Pirates
The Pirates completed the four-game sweep over the Cincinnati Reds at home on Sunday. Melky Cabrera went 3-for-4 with two RBIs and two runs scored. Chris Archer went six solid innings and gave up just five hits and three runs. He struck out seven.
Starling Marte is back after missing the very start of the season with migraines. We’re getting closer to Gregory Polanco’s return, which should be sometime early next month but now Corey Dickerson is on the shelf.

He’s on the 10-Day Injured List with a shoulder strain and is going to be out a while, though the timetable is unclear. That has Pittsburgh’s outfield, though of to be its strength, dangerously thin in the early going.
Chicago Cubs
Chicago lost its third consecutive series to begin the season, falling to Zach Davies and the Brewers on Sunday, 4–2.
Ben Zobrist collected exactly half of Chicago’s six hits as a team and Kyle Hendricks struggled again, for the second time in two starts. He gave up eight hits in just four innings.
