Quick Hits April 10th Edition

• The Cubs open Wrigley Field Monday afternoon against the Rockies. First the play the Brewers in Milwaukee this weekend at Wrigley North. The Sunday match up will be Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN.
• The Red Wings play a home and home series against the Blackhawks to close out the regular season. The Sunday game is the Game of the Week. It is a good way for the Wings to close out the season. They play a good team (possible playoff preview) don't travel much and can play their lineup accordingly. I wonder who will get the starts in net this weekend?
• The NFL draft is two weeks from tomorrow. Anybody else have a countdown going?
• Geovany Soto could be on the DL for the Cubs. They are seeing if a few days off could do him better. This could really slow down the Cubs in the beginning of the year for offense and defense. Koyie Hill should fill in for now. He has been bouncing around the big leagues for a few years, and beat out Paul Bako this Spring. He is good defensively but could hurt the offense. It will be the Cubs first challenge this year. Let's see how they respond.
