Pregame Notes: The Chicago Cubs take on the NL East leading New York Mets; Bleachers reopen in left field

Maybe a little bit of normalcy can help the Chicago Cubs to get back on track. The left and center field bleachers will reopen for tonight’s contest against the New York Mets, with a showcase pitching matchup. The Cubs’ Jon Lester (2-2, 4.04) takes on the Mets’ Jacob deGrom (3-3, 2.95).

The Cubs (15-15) are looking to get back above .500 after dropping another series to the last-place Milwaukee Brewers. It won’t be easy as they take on the Mets, who sit atop the NL East. Lester will look to continue his strong May, which has seen him post two wins with an 0.
