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 ¹/₃ 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.

Charlie Morton, 40 years young, scattered three harmless hits over 5 ²/₃ innings.

Austin Riley belted a three-run dinger. Loss leaves us at -78 pierzynskis.
