Baseball in 4K is nice.

Corona is my go-to cheap beer...

Seems off brand.

Rex Brothers still can’t through a strike.

I still think Underwood should start out in the pen.

Since a lot of these bullpen candidates don't have much of a track record, the tiebreaker should be in favor of the guys who are out of options - Mills, Sadler, Underwood.

Jason Adam looks a lot like Rowan Wick.

Just looking at his stats, they seem pretty good. How did he become available to the Cubs?

The Blue Jays dropped him from their 40 man for some reason.

Cubs win, Cubs win!  Did any of the pitchers look impressive?

Cubs win 12-2 as Dakota Mekkes comes in to get the last three outs.

Giambrone hit a pretty impressive homer in the bottom of the eighth.

Dakota looked pretty good.  Of course, like almost everyone, he was facing other minor leaguers.  But his control looked decent, and no one hit him hard.

Olson was the only clunker.

Mills is Mills.
Underwood in my opinion has something more.
Norwood just gets hit harder than his stuff should be.
Adams is gonna be a dude.
Mekkes looks like an option at some point.
