It’s a battle of Martins today, go figure: Advantage to our Davis, in every way including 2026 Cactus League performance.

For the White Sox, it’s a mix of established lineup and late-spring tryouts. In the latter category sits Everson Pereira at DH, Jarred Kelenic in center, back from WBC Curtis Mead at third base and Dustin Harris getting his first taste of first base. None of them have options left, and not all will make the cut north with the White Sox, so we’ll have some DFAs from this group within two weeks.

As for the Cubs, who cares? They’re traditionally a lousy organization, with insidious ownership. Let’s get another rout, packed with homers, against them.

It’s a dual broadcast, on both CHSN and WMVP, at 3:05 p. m. CT.
