Today the Cubs welcome the Milwaukee Brewers to Hohokam Park for Spring Training game 11. The Cubs are 6-4 on the Spring, and the Brewers are 4-6. Hooray for small victories.
The Cubs will face the Brewers sans Ryan Braun and Aramis Ramirez, who, as veterans, tend not to travel in the Spring (I don’t actually think it’s that big of a deal, but I will say that most Arizona Spring locations are within a reasonable drive from each other).
The game is at 3:05 CT, and will be on the radio on MLB.com. We’ll also do the Game Thread thing over at the Message Board.
Randy Wells gets the start for the Cubs, and we could also see Travis Wood and Casey Coleman, among others. Today’s lineup hints at a top three or four we might actually see when the season rolls around:
1. David DeJesus, RF
2. Marlon Byrd, CF
3. Starlin Castro, SS
4. Ian Stewart, 3B
5. Jeff Baker, 2B
6. Geovany Soto, C
7. Reed Johnson, LF
8. Anthony Rizzo, 1B
9. Randy Wells, P
