Q: If Silva makes the opening day squad (a "big" if)

will this make the Cubs the first team in MLB to have 3 “Carlos” on the pitching staff at the same time?

Who cares if he's a Cubs fan? This is a football forum! He is a PACKER fan as well. So, from now until March, I’m sure he’ll dedicate a lot of his time here. In late March, then we can be enemies during the baseball season. Besides, the Cubs have perhaps the most loyal baseball fanbase in the country. You have to respect that.
