Cubs (Brown) vs Angels (Anderson): 8/22/25, 8:38pm

[Brandon Glick]

Starters haven't been confirmed by either club, but this it sounds like Brown might get the start tonight. Would be really nice to have a calm, easy series after that gauntlet with the Brewers.

Tyler Anderson for the Angels?

Lefty. So could be a problem. Does Castro start in center tonight?

Anderson is one of those lefties , who I wouldn’t be too upset to start lefties againts him . He has been awful againts righties as well  , but againts lefties who depend heavily on changeups , giving them lefty hitters to worry about isn’t a bad idea .

With that said Justin Turner is 20 for 40 with 5 HR against him . That’s not small sample . Would expect him to be in the lineup tonight .

[Neuby]

No opener , No Wicks , No Assad, No DL for Horton.  No hitter for Brown tonight.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Still no official announcement or starters from either team 5 hours before game time, the hell?

Assad up, Braiser with the sacrificial IL trip.

But.. Assad listed for Sunday?? 🤔

Yeah I would think even if Horton avoids the IL you'd do Assad Saturday and Horton Sunday

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Marquee saying Assad expected to go tonight.. no clue why MLB is showing Assad for Sunday.

Assad-Horton-Tallion this weekend 

[chibears55]

Funny, how Assad was already with them yesterday cause they were planning on putting someone on IL and that someone ended up being Braiser that pitched last night. 😅

I mean, did he pitch with a groin strain 😅🤣😅🤣

I'm glad to finally face a pitcher who doesn't throw 100mph

[Derwood]

That is quite a lineup

[DYMNO]

Man, Kyle Hendricks is such a class act. If you didn’t catch Elise’s pre-game interview with him, check it out. 

[chibears55]

Hope the cubs play better then the bears are tonight 😵‍💫

Ugh. Alex Cohen. Yuck.

Boog will probably be crushing a filet mignon tonight when he receives a call from Marquee that Alex cohen has unsettled JD so much that Boog must call the next two nights,
