5/09/24 A middling Chicago Cubs offense + Paul Skenes could be a disaster on Saturday. Learning the Chicago Cubs will face off against the game's most hyped pitching prospect since Stephen Strasburg while being carved up by Dylan Case certainly checked the box of 'poor timing' on Wednesday afternoon. The matchup has the potential to be disastrous for a Chicago lineup that's been erratic, to say the least, and is working to get back to full strength. In Wednesday afternoon's 3-0 loss to the San Diego Padres, Craig Counsell's club mustered all of one hit - a Yan Gomes single - as Cease, a former Cubs prospect, dominated his former organization, cruising through seven scoreless frames and striking out 12.
