@ZachZaidman Soooo no TJ?

Cubs place Cade Horton on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to April 4 (right forearm strain). LHP Riley Martin recalled from Triple-A Iowa. Additionally, RHP Ethan Roberts recalled as the 27th man for today’s doubleheader at Cleveland.

Lots of 💥 hard contact profiles on Sunday as we get into #3/4 starters..particularly: Kochanowicz, Irvin, Meyer, Imanaga, Cecconi, May Symbol key in the reply:

@BallparkPal Wins blowing out at Wrigley and the percentage is still that low? Btw this account is 🔥

It will be in the 40s and 50s for 9 of 12 outdoor games on Saturday There will still be offense at 🟥 games. The TOTAL park effect across those nine is real, but not huge: 6.5 fewer home runs (-0.7 per game) 12.0 fewer runs (-1.3 per game) 📝 Writeup and guides in reply

@WaddleandSilvy Wilson Contreras, Tommy Pham, Angel Reese, Milton Bradley.

Question for you... Who is the least likeable person in sports? 312-332-3776

Wilson Contreras @WaddleandSilvy

SWEET 16 Trapezoid of Excellence 4/5 original pre tourney zoid teams remain. Illinois joins, 7 others SO close. The elite slower paced teams dominating. BOTH outliers Iowa & Alabama still dancing thanks to forcing opponents to play THEIR way.

@WaddleandSilvy @DriveToyota Crazy to say they didn’t care. They all chose to be there rather than be at spring training. Just because they’re not as flamboyant as internationals doesn’t mean they don’t care.

Did team USA not care enough in the #WBC? Today's poll question is brought to you by your local Chicagoland Toyota dealers. @DriveToyota

@DearOldState_16 @BFW Dynasty with Toews and Kane was epic fandom. Bars were packed for every game during that run. If the build it, the fans will be back.

@BFW Chicago may be closer than you think. Boston loves the Bruins too. I’m not saying they’re 100% the 2nd team but it’s close.

I need examples of a US city with at least three pro sports teams where the NHL team is top two in fandom in the city. Boys here said Detroit, DC and Tampa. I think I’ll give them DC and Tampa, but contest Detroit. Some guys said Minnesota, I think Twins are bigger than Wild.

Jason Kipnis @WaddleandSilvy

@FieldYates @AlbertBreer These guys going to make another move in a few hours?

@AlbertBreer And - I would think - it probably decreases the compensation they’ll get in return if they execute another trade.

This puts the Raiders in an incredibly difficult situation. They lose the picks, they have a bunch of deals to be finalized tomorrow done under the assumption Maxx Crosby was gone, and now they may have to turn around and trade him again with the medical question hovering.

Dude doesn’t even look at Livvy Dunne the way he looks at Bobby Witt Jr.

@BradBiggs Didn’t he get beat out by a guy already on the roster?

This is a potential win/win for both parties. The team has pressing need and Jones' market wasn't what he'd hoped because he was never 100% healthy last season. Bears get a bridge left tackle and Jones can be in a much better spot to hit free agency a year from now.

#Bears are re-signing LT Braxton Jones to a 1-year contract.

@WaddleandSilvy Yeah…. Cool with all the moves so far, but this one is a head scratcher

Does this mean Taylor Decker is not an option?? Caller suggested this today… I did think he would be back after Benedet replaced him.

@CourtneyRCronin What is this @nflcommish??

Comp picks are out. I know this will upset some Bears fans. Despite both Ryan Poles and Falcons GM Ian Cunningham being vocal about how Chicago felt it deserved its two 3rd round comp picks for Cunningham’s departure, the league apparently doesn’t see it the same way. The Bears are not one of the teams that has been awarded a third round comp pick in April.

@MLBBruceLevine @jon_greenberg @DavidHaugh Should be Cade SZN, but I can see him going with a vet

Cubs manager Craig Counsell told me that he will name an opening day starter in the next week.Other reporters asked him to do it while I’m on the air doing Inside the Clubhouse along with @DavidHaugh on Saturday morning.

TEAM USA IS ON THE BOARD! David Eustace switches hands and finds the back of the net to get the scoring started for the United States.

@MeekPhill_ Ugh all those cards I collected 😢

102 ERA+ in his last 57 starts. It’s been over

🚨 MARCH IS HERE 🚨 Conference tournament season has officially arrived… and the madness starts NOW 🔥 Who’s dancing? 👀⬇️

@chrispronger Just the loud one percent.

Is it just me or does there seem to be a lot of unhappy fanbases right now? Thoughts? #NHL
