Hopefully this one is a laugher because that pen availability is pretty ugly today.

Hopefully Thielbar is unavailable

horsefeathers. I thought we dodge a bullet with Cease back in June but nope.

Cease always seems to dominate when he comes to Wrigley.  Hopefully the Cubs can get some payback from his wildcard start last year

Toronto has scored the fewest runs in MLB this year

Honestly I'd be tempted to, regardless of score, try to get 9 out Peterson/Rea/Civale and give the meat of the bullpen a reset.

I read that Vlad Jr. hasn't hit a home run in his home stadium all year long.  Pretty wild stuff for a guy who's in year 2 of a 14 year contract.

I'd be ok if they treated this game like a post-clincher.  Pete and regulars deserve a night out and day off today.

It's true. And only 6 HR all year

Equally surprising is which team has scored the most

Very true.

Garrett up, Ferguson down. A little surprising.
