So yesterday didn’t go to plan. The Cubs treated Kevin Gausman like a nine-man Qatari soccer team, dissipating the good vibes from the sweep of the Red Sox. But it’s a new day. Patrick Corbin (2-3, 4.57) is no great shakes at this point in his career, but I think he can give us more than we got yesterday. The offense should be able to score more than two off Colin Rea (5-5, 5.35).
We’ve got some roster moves since yesterday. Daulton Varsho and Lazaro Estrada are back from the IL, and Charles McAdoo and Brendon Little have been optioned to make room. Varsho’s back in centre in today’s lineup.
Here’s the Jays’ Lineup:
- DH George Springer
- RF Nathan Lukes
- 1B Vladimir Guerrero jr.
- C Brandon Valenzuela
- 3B Kazuma Okamoto
- CF Daulton Varsho
- 2B Davis Schneider
- SS Andres Gimenez
- LF Myles Straw
- SP Patrick Corbin
And here are the Cubs:
- CF Pete Crow-Armstrong
- 2B Nico Hoerner
- DH Seiya Suzuki
- 1B Michael Busch
- 3B Alex Bregman
- LF Ian Happ
- RF Matt Shaw
- C Miguel Amaya
- SS Dansby Swanson
