The D -Backs will also roll out their “A” bullpen to Burnes. AJ Puk, Justin Martinez, Kevin Ginkel and Joe Mantiply should appear. Non-and-Lades invites Shelby Miller and Kyle Amendt.

The Cubs start the 27-year-old right-handed Caleb Kilian. In the past three years he performed in just eight games and fought against shoulder injuries, including Teres employment in 2024. He is on the 40-man squad of the Cub, but not expected to fight for a rotation place to start the season.
