Good top of the first. Go Cubs.

Michael Busch is not a #4 hitter on a good offensive team.

What's the scouting report on Matt Shaw? Didn't watch one inning of spring training

Update: Wow, his batting stance is weird looking

Cubs lead 1-0. What a team, what a team!

This is so stupid. Why is there an opening day a week before opening day halfway across the fucking planet starting at a time when nobody from the city where they're from is even awake? Then you play more exhibition games? Then another opener? Idiotic.

I prefer this over the nonstop Bears talk. We don't need NFL talk 365 days a year! Hopefully the Cubs are exciting

It really is.

I suppose it isn't the end of the world for a Cub fan to get up at 5 to watch the opener, but it's 3:00 a.m. in L.A.

Japan has a late night culture. They could have started the games at 10 over there if they were going to insist on starting the season this way. They would have still sold out.

I dunno, better to start at 5:00 AM here so it is not cutting through the workday….

The Cubs have a lot of games that "cut through the workday." Should they move them all to 5:00 a.m.?

Cubs bullpen already blowing leads!

Sure, I can do bloody mary’s.

Hah and poor defense.

Workman should have been playing 2nd base instead of Berti. In fact Berti shouldn't even be on team.

Same lame ass, limp dick offense as last year

An apt metaphor for CFMB posters.

Can't judge them after one game but this offense seems like it needs one more dynamic hitter.

sure he is, he's making $800k.

not too many times you'll take on the dodgers without freeman and betts. cubs hitters laid a predictable 2023-2024 egg...i believe tucker is 1 for 2025.

0-1. LOL.

Baseball spring training is indicative of nothing for the regular season. We all know this. Yet, I heard PCAAAA was the best player some baseball expert had ever seen. Big, hollow skull Haugh couldn't stop gushing about Matt "Thaw".

It's nice to make money before you even start to make money in the day.

Cubs don't care about winning another World Series. Rickett's just wants to sell his amusment park tickets and keep racking in the money. Tucker signing is nothing more than the shiny new ride at the park to get people in the gates for a year. He will never sign him to a long term contract. Rinse and repeat next year with another short term super star and around and around we go.

Fuck Rickett's and the Cubs. Not buying into their bullshit.

You really think Rickett's is committed to winning this year? Everything he has done has been to setup Wrigleyville to be a cash cow. No harm in that as long as you invest it back into the team. That is what he sold us on and it is not what we are getting.

I don't know about Ricketts but Jed is committed to hanging on to his job.

However, it's a very ill-kept secret that Ricketts expects there to be a strike and this increase, however subtle in spending will only last this season.
