"The Cubs got their teeth knocked in a bit yesterday in Philadelphia, the extent to which was softened only by some late, garbage-time offense. Good to see? Sure. Meaningful? Nah."
"The above group is, as of today, the 'everyday' players. It's okay for them to play. In fact, I think this is only the second time with this exact group."
"Because the Phillies have a tough, left-handed-heavy group at the top of their lineup, Craig Counsell is rolling with a left-handed opener tonight in the form of Riley Martin."
The Cubs are preparing to face the Philadelphia Phillies after a challenging game. They are using an opener, Riley Martin, followed by Colin Rea. The lineup includes Nico Hoerner, Michael Busch, and Alex Bregman among others. Michael Busch and Moises Ballesteros return after a day off, while Seiya Suzuki is out. The Cubs' strategy involves adapting to the opposing team's left-handed hitters. The Phillies lineup features notable players like Trea Turner and Bryce Harper, presenting a significant challenge for the Cubs.
