Staying in Chicago, but we’re moving over to Wrigley Field.
The Cubs are still a couple of deep-dish pizzas better than the crosstown-rival White Sox.
And that’s not saying much.
Javier Assad throws for the home team.
Assad made 32 appearances but just 10 starts last year, finishing with a record of 5-3.
The Rockies visit and Kyle Freeland will make his second start this year.
Freeland’s ERA is an inflated 38.57 after watching 10 Snakes slither across the plate in just 2 ?/? innings, this after going 6-14 in 2023.
Look for Freeland’s ERA to shrink while Assad and the Cubs fly the W.
Play $50 on the Cubbies (-178, Caesars).
Foolish.
The winless White Sox made us look like fools on the First of April, losing to the Bravos, 9-0.
The game was called after eight innings for rain, but it just as well could have been the mercy rule.
