There’s another game this evening, but I think I’m gonna get you this Miscellany now, and I’ll touch on goodies from the nightcap (8pm CT) later. The Cubs knocked some dingers today, and Jose Quintana pitched well, so that’s a win over the Rangers. Just make sure you do it again next week when it counts, boys.
Cubs win!

Quintana efficient 6 IP vs. Ranger. Allowed one run. “Felt good.”
Expected to open as the fifth starter, he might stay behind when team breaks camp Tuesday to make one more start on minor league side Wednesday.— Gordon Wittenmyer (@GDubCub) March 22, 2019

Right-hander Tony Barnette, who last pitched on March 3 because of a sore shoulder, threw off a mound Thursday for the first time since then. He threw 20 pitches, all fastballs. “Everything went well,” he said. “No issues to report.” https://t.co/SxFGFCw1Dq
