Thu, Mar 29 @Miami 12:30 PM Lester vs Urethra
Fri, Mar 30 @Miami 7:10 PM Hendricks vs Straily
Sat, Mar 31 @Miami 7:10 PM Darvish vs ?
Sun, Apr 1 @ Miiami 1:10 PM Q vs ?



The entire team is hitting this spring. Happ has been unreal. Looks like Zobrist is in a pure bench role, and I'm fine with that.
I'm a bit worried about the bullpen as I don't think Morrow will hold up. But they have the ammo to trade for a really good closer midyear.

All in all, signs point to a repeat.

You forgot Sunday, it's a 4-game series.

I'm going to be at all four games, one of my cousins and I go to one road series a year and given our schedules this was the only one which was feasible, plus he'd never been to Miami. So four days of baseball, Cuban food, and looking at hot young women who would never sleep with us even when they get to be our age.

I'm expecting the Cubs to win three of four. I think that Joe will put his getaway day lineup in on Sunday and they'll lose that one.

I'm pretty pumped actually. By April 10th I'll probably fucking hate this Sox team but not today! Today hope springs eternal.

Same. The drive to work on Tuesday morning is when I started feeling anxious and it hasn't stopped since.

Should be a sweep, but 3 of 4 is what we will probably get.

Why doesn't Baez get moved up? He's free-swinging so having him low in the lineup means he sees less fastballs.

He's always been uncomfortably soft-spoken in interviews.
