Cubs @ Astros, 6/29/2025

Pena with another day off, and he’ll get one Monday as well

Paredes DH
Meyers CF
Altuve 2B
Smith RF
Diaz C
Walker 1B
Hummel LF
Dubon SS
Guillorme 3B

Framber P

Bruised ribs suck. Hopefully just another couple of days of soreness.

Cubs just got out of a series where they drilled a bunch of Cards. I hope they don’t repeat that on the way out of town.

On a side note…Paredes leading off, Meyers hitting second, and Cam Smith hitting cleanup. I did not forecast that.

I’ve managed to mess myself up in a myriad of ways during my 50 years on this earth…broken/bruised ribs are the most annoyingly painful. It only hurts when you breathe.

So I’m drinking an Aperol spritz. Hopefully that works.

I’ve changed my hat, shirt and coozie from yesterday…it’s all I can do
