The Cubs are back in action and results of game one were not great. Chicago’s pitching staff walked a whopping 11 batters while collecting just 3 hits of their own. The Cubs are hoping warmer weather and the return of Jake Arrieta will make Saturday a better day at Wrigley.

Game Notes
- Arrieta was 68-31 his first stint in a Cubs uniform and looks to be healthy.
- The Cubs will need their big right handed bats to show up against the lefty Anderson.
