MILWAUKEE -- The Chicago Cubs acquired Mike Montgomery in July with the intention of bolstering their bullpen.An injury prompted him moving into the rotation and in his fourth start with the Cubs on Wednesday night, Montgomery turned in five strong innings, allowing one run and two hits.He didnt factor into the decision as the Cubs lost to the Brewers 2-1, sparked by Jonathan Villars two home runs and a game-saving catch by Keon Broxton in the ninth.(Montgomery) was really good, Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. The hanging changeup to Villar, that was the pitch that hurt us. But good curveball, good changeup, good fastball.Montgomery, acquired from Seattle in a four-player trade, gained a spot in the starting rotation when John Lackey went on the disabled list with a shoulder problem. He remained in the rotation after Lackeys return on Sunday as the Cubs have temporarily opted to go with a six-man rotation.Montgomery faced the minimum number of batters through three innings.I felt a little better than the last couple outings, Montgomery said. I just wanted to go out and attack guys a little better, and get ahead. I made a mistake to Villar, but I felt good about (the outing).Milwaukee, which took two of three in the series, got its first hit when Villar homered leading off the fourth. Villar homered again off Joe Smith (1-1), the sixth Chicago pitcher, leading off the eighth.Corey Knebel (1-2) pitched a scoreless inning in relief to get the win. Tyler Thornburg notched his ninth save in 13 chances.With one out in the ninth, Rizzo hit a drive to deep center. Broxton drifted back and jumped above the wall to make the catch.I knew I hit it well, it just wasnt carrying as much as it was yesterday, Rizzo said. (Broxton) made a nice play.Maddon said he knew that ball would carry to the fence as soon as it was hit.That kid, Broxton, hes so athletic that he was able to go over it, he said.The Cubs loaded the bases with one out in the first against Milwaukee starter Matt Garza, but failed to score.Garza, facing his former team for the second time this season, retired 14 of 15 batters at one point before giving up the solo home run to Rizzo with two outs in the sixth.He made that one mistake to me on the slider but other than that, he really pitched us well, Rizzo said.Garza gave up one run and three hits in six innings.Milwaukee won for just the sixth time in the last 28 games against the Cubs.SLIDING BYRyan Braun tried to stretch a single into a double in the fourth but slid past second base and was called out when Cubs second baseman Ben Zobrist applied the tag.TRAINERS ROOMCubs: Reliever Justin Grimm left the game with an undisclosed illness after facing one batter in the sixth. ... Maddon thought about resting Rizzo but reconsidered. Watching him yesterday, he didnt look tired so I put him back in. I thought the day before (Monday) his bat looked a little bit off, Maddon said. But with the night game after the day game he got some good rest. We have a day off (Thursday) so I chose to play him today.UP NEXTCubs: Jon Lester (15-4, 2.61 ERA) gets the start as Chicago opens a three-game series at Houston on Friday. Lester took a no-hitter into the seventh inning in his last start on Friday against San Francisco and finished with a complete game three-hitter. He will make his second career start against Houston and first since June 2008.Brewers: Junior Guerra (7-3, 2.85 ERA) will take the mound as Milwaukee opens a four-game series at St. Louis on Thursday.

Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.Refresh often for the latest information.Ruled out before SundayRB Chris Ivory (illness), QB Tony Romo (back), RB Kenneth Dixon (knee), TE Tyler Eifert (ankle), WR Kendall Wright (hamstring), TE Zach Ertz (ribs, Monday Night Football)Top players were watchingEarly games, 1 p.m. ET (eight scheduled)TE Rob Gronkowski (hamstring, questionable) -?inactive RB Jonathan Stewart (ankle, questionable) -?active RB Arian Foster (hamstring, questionable)?- active WR Breshad Perriman (calf, questionable)?- active RB Jamaal Charles (knee, doubtful) - inactive TE Jordan Cameron (thigh, questionable)?- active WR DeVante Parker (hamstring, questionable)?- active WR Chris Hogan (shoulder, questionable)?- active WR Markus Wheaton (shoulder, questionable) - inactive WR Josh Doctson (Achilles, questionable) - activeLate games, 4:05 and 4:25 p.m. ET (five scheduled)WR Demaryius Thomas (hip, questionable)?- active RB C.J. Prosise (wrist, questionable)?- inactiveSunday night game, 8:30 p.m. ETNoneUpdates/analysis (most recent first)Trevor Siemian (3:12 PM): The opportunity is there for the young quarterback to air things out at home this afternoon, as the Colts will be without three members of their secondary - Patrick Robinson, T.J. Green and Vontae Davis.Atlanta Falcons (3:08 PM): As expected, both Julio Jones and Mohamed Sanu are active for this weeks game. Both receivers had been dealing with ankle issues, but practiced fully on Friday.Julius Thomas (3:05 PM): After scoring a touchdown in Week 1, the Jaguars are happy to have Thomas back in their lineup for Week 2. The tight end had been nursing a sprained ankle, but is active today.Russell Wilson (3:00 PM): The quarterback is active for todays game against the Rams, defying original expectations that his high ankle sprain might cause him to miss a few games.Demaryius Thomas (2:55 PM): The Denver wide receiver (hip) is indeed active for this afternoon contest. Jordan Norwood and Cody Latimer lose any fantasy value for as long as Thomas is on the field.C.J. Prosise (2:50 PM): The Seattle running back is out with a wrist injury, meaning Thomas Rawls?and?Christine Michael?should split nearly all the time in the backfield for the Seahawks in Week 2.Jared Goff (2:45 PM): Hes not expected to play unless an injury befalls starter Case Keenum or there are some late-game snaps available for him to get his NFL feet wet, but at least hes the active backup for Week 2. QB Sean Mannion is inactive.Arizona Cardinals (2:34 PM): Nothing much to note by way of inactives here, though WR J.J. Nelson (shoulder) will sit this game out. Perhaps that gives Jaron Brown a little bit of value in the deepest of leagues.Nate Solder (12:10 PM): With the tackle active for Week 2, Jimmy Garoppolo should have even better pass protection for this game than he did in Week 1 - and he was oonly sacked twice in that contest.ddddddddddddDeAndre Levy (12:00 PM): The linebacker will be out of action for the Lions due to a hip injury, which comes as a slight surprise, since earlier in the week he was expected to play. Linebacker will be thin for Detroit as a result, so Marcus Mariota may have a much easier go of things today than we would have otherwise thought.Tyler Eifert (11:55 AM): The good news is that Eifert was seen running routes on the field before the game. However, the bad news is that hes still likely a few weeks away from being active. C.J. Uzomah and Tyler Kroft will split time at tight end in Week 2 for the Bengals.Baltimore Ravens (11:50 AM): With Javorius Allen listed as inactive in Week 2, the Ravens should roll again with a two-headed backfield of Justin Forsett and Terrance West.Jay Ajayi (11:43 AM): After being a healthy scratch in Week 1, Ajayi is active today for Miami. That said, so too is Arian Foster, so unless Fosters hamstring acts up, theres not a lot of fantasy value to be found here in Week 2.Markus Wheaton (11:25 AM): According to NFL Networks Ian Rapoport, the Steelers will be without Wheatons services today. Eli Rogers should have an increased role at wide receiver as a result.Demaryius Thomas (8:45 AM): For now, the Broncos expect Thomas to play this afternoon, despite the hip injury, per ESPNs Adam Schefter. However, hes going to have to make it through pregame workouts before hell get the all clear to suit up. With the late start to this one, make sure you have an alternate option available for your lineup, just in case.Miami Dolphins (8:30 AM): Arian Foster and DeVante Parker both appear to be ready to suit up today, despite hamstring injuries for the duo. NFL Networks Ian Rapoport expects Parker to make his 2016 debut against the Patriots, and adds that Foster is good to go.Jamaal Charles (8:15 AM): The busiest man in football, ESPNs Adam Schefter, reports that hes been told that although the Kansas City running back is ready to play this week, the team will be cautious with Charles, holding him out of action until Week 3.?Spencer Ware?should once again get the bulk of the Chiefs ground game work.Russell Wilson (8:00 AM): The Seattle quarterback is currently expected to play in todays late afternoon game against the Rams, however as ESPNs Adam Schefter reports, Wilson will be battling through a high ankle sprain and could potentially have his movement limited.Rob Gronkowski (7:50 AM): According to ESPNs Adam Schefter, sources tell him that the Patriots tight end will not play today against the Dolphins, due to his lingering hamstring injury. That certainly gives Martellus Bennett a slight boost in value, but hes no Rob Gronkowski, and unlikely to have much fantasy impact beyond what he gave you in Week 1 in Gronks absence.Official Sunday inactives should begin coming in at approximately 11:30 a.m. ET for the early set of games, 2:30 p.m. ET for the later set and 7 p.m. ET for the Sunday night game.
