This is my first Game Thread since the day after win number one. Weird.
Cubs (17-13):
Pitchers:
Lineup:
SS Aaron Miles

RF Reed Johnson
2B Andres Blanco

Rockies (11-15):
Pitchers:
Lineup:
CF Ryan Spilborghs
LF Seth Smith
1B Todd Helton
3B Garrett Atkins
RF Ian Stewart
SS Troy Tulowitzki
C Chris Iannetta
2B Clint Barmes
RHP Ubaldo Jimenez
What to Watch For:
-Garrett Atkins returns to the lineup today for the first time since March 10.
-Troy Tulowitzki plays his third game in a row after being out last weekend with back problems.
-Brad Hawpe is still taking it easy with his left hammy, so we get to see Ian Stewart try his first hand at RF today.
-Except for Hawpe and Jimenez, this could be the Opening Day line-up. It will be interesting to see how they stack up against an All-Star pitcher.
