Today's Matchup - April 15, 2011


In honor of Jackie Robinson Day (Which I fully believe should be a national holiday), players for the Rockies and the Cubs will both wear No. 42 for today's game at Coors Field. Matt Garza, who came to Chicago from the Tampa Bay Rays, takes the hill for the Cubs, and has been pitching better than his ERA suggests. He has 20 strikeouts in 20+ innings pitched. Not too bad.

Other than that, there's not a whole lot of Rockies news for today's matchup against the Cubbies.

Happy Jackie Robinson Day!
