As we have done in the past, we will have a first kickoff thread five minutes before game time and an overflow thread, 90 minutes after game time. For today, that will be 2:00 p.m. CT and 3:30 p.m. CT.
These threads will not be published individually on the front page; instead, you can find links to them in the box labeled “Chicago Cubs Game Threads” at the bottom of the home page. There will also be a StoryStream on the front page with all the links to the game threads, as well as the recap once the game is completed. Pitcher photos and regular season stats will return on Opening Day.
