[Eeyore]

Twenty runs!

[LBiittner]

Great, another Wesi start.

Over/under on homeruns allowed in his typical 3 inning start?

I would make it 1.5. And I would bet the over. 

[KCCub]

 

[CubinNY]

Brutal

[Derwood]

All female broadcast team and the forever-onliners have a BIG PROBLEM with it

[LBiittner]

I'm looking forward to watching this.  JD is wonderful. But for some reason Boog has me wanting Lenny back?

[Bertz]

One thing I really hope we see the rest of the year is Wesneski in the rotation for the duration.  Dong problems are fleeting about 95% of the time, there's not a ton of reason to thing Wesneski's part of the 5% (last year when it was all lefties hitting them it seemed more potentially systemic) and Wesneski's non-dong aspects all say #3 starter.

Even if you want to use Hayden as currency rather than keep him around. a good back half of the season would do wonders.

Stupid?  Sure.  However, the silver lining is he may no longer be an option out of the bullpen, ultimately turning out to be a good thing.

[BKHoo]

Broke his hand?! That’s crazy. 

[Eeyore]

Schanuel was like the Spinal Tap drummer yesterday. I figured that they would give him the day off.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Early returns are in: 

 

Beth Mowins: BAD

Elise Menaker: GOOD

I like elise when she does Iowa games with Cohen,  I wouldn't mind if the two of them took over the booth for Cubs games.

[Eeyore]

Mowins does a really good job with football and basketball. I don't think that she has done nearly as much baseball. She's good enough for filling in. I still miss Len and J.D. as a crew. I'm sure that the Cubs couldn't afford Len after the biblical losses from the pandemic. 😞

[BKHoo]

13 straight scoreless innings for the Cubs against this great Angels team. 

[Cubbies1996]

Morel is no longer “unlucky”. He’s just an incredibly bad hitter. 

[Eeyore]

Are the Cubs the only team that consistently plays a DH with a .672 OPS?

They really don't have anyone else much better, their better hitters are all starters

[Eeyore]

Not getting no-hit today
