This is the Cubs’ last game before heading out to Tokyo, where they’ll play two exhibition games prior to their series against the Dodgers. All of the games in Japan will be broadcast on Marquee Sports Network, with the Spring Breakout contests this Thursday and Saturday playing on MLB Network. There will be no games at all on Wednesday, next Monday, and next Thursday, so those of you who don’t get Marquee are in for a very quiet week-plus.
There will still be some regulars going today, starting with Justin Steele on the bump to face the Brewers from Sloan Park.
