Positives from the game:
*Chris Volstad shows he may be a sleeper and have a comeback year.
*Alfonso Soriano keeps showing he still have power in the tank.
*Jeff Baker shows he’s a good guy to have on the bench.
Negatives from the game:
*Carlos Marmol looked very bad and better tune that up by opening day.
*Scott Maine keeps un-impressing me.
*Cabrera did not look good whatsoever.
*Not much relievers impressing thus far, including Casey Weathers.
Tomorrow the Cubs play the Chicago White Sox at 2 p.m. central. I believe that game will be televise on TV.
