Preview: 4/23 Cubs vs. Cardinals

Matt Garza is pitching!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Matt Garza

Tonight we kick off our second series of the season against the division leading St. Louis Cardinals and Jaime Garcia (2-0, 3.06). So far this year the Cardinals have won every series they've been a part of, while the Cubs have, well, not. However, we are leading the entire league in Runs-Scored-In-Game-One-Of-A-Series-Against-The-Cardinals. Advantage: Cubs. 

We've got Garza on the mound, who is as good at pitching as he is fun to watch while doing anything but pitching. And let me tell you, he is pretty damn fun to watch when he isn't pitching. Jaime Garcia's stats look good on paper but he attributes his success entirely to luck.

"I'm not very good at this," he said after his last start, in which he managed to induce four double plays. Good luck doing that again, Jaime. 

All in all I like our chances of winning this game, and I love my chances of giggling a lot during it.
