Early days to be sure, but Sutter Health Park might be a hitter's haven as the Cubs and A's exploded for 21 runs (18 of them by the Cubs) in last night's opener at Sacramento. Tonight, Craig Counsell crosses his fingers with Justin Steele, "pitching to contact" in his first two starts vs. the Dodgers (in Japan) and at Arizona, with an 8.00 ERA. But he might be able to count upon some run support as the Cubs have been scoring in bunches. Meanwhile, Luis Severino hopes to fare better for the A's than did Joey Estes last night, and kept the Mariners scoreless across 6 IP last Thursday, but Mark Kotsay's issue right now is his bullpen, strafed again last night. Play Cubs-A's Over.
