Garza to start against Sox today

Matt Garza will make his sixth Spring Training start today against the White Sox (C). The Cubs(C) won't meet up with their cross-town rivals until June at US Cellular Field and July at Wrigley Field so this preview will tell Mike Quade and Ozzie Guillen what each team needs to work on.

Reservations are still available for the Sox visit to Wrigely Field on July 1, 2 & 3.

Cubs(C) team chemistry developing well.

The Cubs(C) are using Spring Training not only to work on their skills, but also to work on the team dynamic. Seemingly small things, like Ryan Dempster spending his day off watching the rest of the team take on the Angels in the rain, develops the chemistry needed between the players. Hopefully all the hard work that's been going on in Spring Training, both on and off the field, will pay off when the Cubs(C) return to Wrigley Field on April 1st.

Quade looking at more than numbers

Mike Quade is paying special attention to the health of the pitchers contending for spots in the rotation. While ERA's are important, Quade is looking for a rotation he's "happy with". If the improvement in the Cubs(C) performance at the end of 2010 is any indication then Quade knows exactly what he's looking for in his pitchers. We all look forward to seeing all the hard work pay off when the Cubs(C) return to Wrigley.

Eamus Catuli!
