Happ LF
Almora Jr. CF
Bryant 3B
Contreras C
Zobrist 1B

Russell SS
Heyward RF
Jose Quintana SP
Barves

Swanson SS

Suzuki C
Markakis RF
Adams LF
Culberson 3B
Bourjos CF
Sean Newcomb SP
Peter Bourjos didn't make the team out of Cubs' Spring Training but hung on over at Atlanta. Quintana looked really good in his last start, so hopefully he can keep it rolling. Sean Newcomb is a very talented young pitcher who went 6 without allowing a run against Colorado last start. Predicting a lot of ground balls in this one.

Glad to see Almora was well enough to start vs a LHP after all.

Maybe Cubs starters are just going to alternate between good and bad starts.

You’d think they would want a giant strike zone in a game like this one.

I think Willson’s framing has been pretty bad so far.

I can’t wait for the day that this is no longer a thing.

On this pitch, Contreras got up to prepare to throw to second. Very costly. He needs to learn not to do that.

Rizzo the Rat,
Wow, every call it flagged so far has been against the Cubs.
berseliusQuote Reply
(dying laughing), if they call plate blocking here the cubs should just go home

Not sure how miserable it looks on TV, but it was very miserable in person. What a shit show and thank goodness for warm restaurants near the park. Not a good homestand, to state the obvious…

20+ combined runs for a game in the rain with a windchill in the 20s, just like we all suspected.
