Tuesday: 6:08 p.m., CSN.
LH Jon Lester (4-4, 3.86) vs. RH Anibal Sanchez (3-7, 5.69).

Wednesday: 6:08 p.m., CSN.
RH Jake Arrieta (5-4, 3.04) vs. RH Shane Greene (4-5, 5.40).

Cubs split by losing tonight and winning tomorrow.

High of 77 today and tomorrow 87 in Detroit. Per IMU's theory the offense should finally be scoring runs.

They won't

I don't know...Comerica isn't a great HR park. Good for doubles and triples though.

We'll see.

The weather will be, and has mostly been, conducive to runs being scored.

The Cubs offense has not been conducive to runs being scored.

I don't know if Comerica will help in that. Maybe.

Either way, the offense (or parts of it) isn't living up to expectations, while the pitching staff is exceeding expectations. Hopefully the former comes around while the latter stays the same.

So I guess we're not even going to get the one good year out of Jon Samardzija's contract I thought we would. 4-5 , 4 plus ERA in mid June.

He's almost 2 rpg higher than last year pitching in an easier league. Not a good quarter of a season.

Well I didn't expect him to be turrible but I feel they overpaid him mostly based on past production rather than future expectations . I just don't feel he's a 20 million plus pitcher .

I've said it before and been shouted down but his big free agent track record over the past 5+ years is bad, and that is after being saved from Sanchez and Tanaka.

it's been mixed moreso than bad. in his 4 year tenure with the Cubs he's done pretty well with his lower profile free agency signings. those have been led to very positive results.

that's why I said "big free agent signings". His last year in Boston was epically bad as well.

Cubs aren't wearing undershirts tonight and are winning 5-0 in the 3rd.
