Honest to God I think that lineup is better than the Marlins.  And probably not far from the Rockies or Pirates?

[Jason Ross]

That's a fun ass lineup. There will be many nights the Cubs run 5 top-100 in the same lineup.

I presume all the AAA guys are going short ~3ish inning outings here to start the season but through Connor Noland's velo is up about 1.5 MPH and he has 6 swings and misses.

Ben Cowles 💣

Alcántara just missed a HR in the first.

Through 3 velo held at +1.5 and he is up to 10 whiffs

Pretty solid outing from Ethan Roberts too.  Velo up a good bit from last year.  Though still not back to where it was pre TJ.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Palencia goes K, K, GB for the save, sitting 99-100

[Jason Ross]

Yeah, it was a good night for Iowa. Caissie hits a HR in his return from surgery. Cowles hit some rockets. Alcantara almost homered. Long had a few good swings. Danny P looked strong.
