4/30: Cubs (Hamels) @ Mariners (Hernandez) - 9:10 CDT - NBCSCH

[Sammy Sofa]

The start time for this game is a damn war crime. Prepare for a lot of this:

 

 

King Felix has actually been OK so far. So that's something.

I love how the MLB trolled the Cubs after giving them 1 off day in the last 7 weeks of last season by giving them a billion off days in April

[Brian707]

If you stay up late for this, just take a nap at work

 

[bcl412]

I’m not sure I’d stay up this late for a damn World Series game

Please stop leading off the guy hitting .167 and OBPing .286 over the last 2 weeks, thanks, bye.

[Sammy Sofa]

(And yes, I know Zobrist is even worse in that time)

[CyHawk_Cub]

Wouldn't hate seeing Heyward at leadoff.

 

The me of a month ago cannot believe I typed that.

The possibility of Bote turning into a mostly full time player (with at least acceptable defense at third and short) really opens up the possibilities in the lineup to hide weaknesses/struggling players.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I'm glad I have the ability to stay up past 8pm. Ninnies.

Going to the game tonight with my Schwarber jersey. If he dongs you have me to thank.

I know this already has been discussed, and I realize why it happened earlier in the season with so many Opening Day series we played, but I just want to again point out and ask, why the horsefeathers did we have so many off days in April?

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I enjoyed the home run. I don't enjoy this challenge this early in the game on such a small thing. Of course, it did hit him, so what the hell do I know?

Joe is playing chess and you ninnies are playing checkers. Lol.

[Old Style]

Why does Felix have a mouthpiece in?

[Cubswin11]

We should try and sneak Haniger out of Seattle with us

3 of them were because we played in 3 home openers, all outdoors, and they have the auto-day off after those. The rest I'm just assuming was the schedule makers trolling us.

[Bertz]

King Felix being old and bad even though he's only 33 is super upsetting

[Tim]

That double play was...predictable

[Old Style]

Addison Russell will be optioned to Iowa when his suspension is over.

horsefeathers, KB just missed that.

 

[UMFan83]

Jeez, the Cubs seriously have another off day on Thursday?

Jeez, the Cubs seriously have another off day on Thursday?

 

It's a long bus ride home

Anyone else watching this besides me?

Looks like there’s a handful at the game.
