Hate to be the Rondon Fan here but expect delays today

Weather Channel makes it look like the last of it will move through at 1pm.

 

Strange, yahoo weather (on iphone) has the rain starting at 1 and going until 10 pm

 

Or weather channel online:

I was mostly looking at future radar while waking up and drinking coffee. Your forecast is probably more accurate.

It's at the point now, where I look at the schedule and have a hard time finding games the Cubs could potentially lose. Obviously, they have 5 of the best starters and the best offense on earth right now, so it's not like I'm looking for a non-favorable pitching matchup or a better scoring offense. But at this point, the Cubs only basically lose if they face a pitcher with the potential to dominate, actually dominates, and does so longer or as well as the Cubs' starter. Their last losses have come against starters who at least have some history of putting together at least the occasional dominant performance. Kazmir, Wainwright, Bumgarner, Cole, and apparently Pomeranz has that ability now. Bradley yesterday was probably the best chance I see for a guy to dominate the Cubs hitters (and he did) until they see Scherzer on the 13th. And obviously, the Cubs destroyed him a few weeks ago.

 

So, basically the Cubs should continue to win a lot of games unless their starters implode. This is pretty much how I imagined this team when I saw how it was constructed. Run-of-the-mill pitchers do not have success against them. And fortunately, the league is full of those types of guys.

this is kind of silly. the cubs are going to be favored in every game short of maybe a hammel vs kershaw type matchup where a good team has a great starter going against one of our lesser ones, but they can potentially lose literally any game, and it wouldn't be unlikely enough to be considered at all shocking. this is baseball.
