Losing Theo: sad
Losing Schwarber: really sad

I expected some big departures from the Cubs this offseason, but this one came as a shocker. Sources have confirmed to The Athletic that Len Kasper is leaving the Cubs to take the White Sox radio play-by-play job. Story: https://t.co/SSBZofOoTx
After Indians catcher Austin Hedges unsuccessfully tries to frame a pitch: “He hedges his bets a little bit.” Len off to a hot start in the first inning tonight! 6.5/10
JD says Heyward is the “leader of the pack” and then when he strikes out on a low pitch Len says, “That pitch was down, down, down.” Maybe the most obscure reference I’ve ever seen, 6/10 https://t.co/vDEij14LPt
Talking about umpire Ron Culpa missing a call: “Would he say mea...?” I love that Len didn’t even finish this joke, just let the viewer fill in the obvious punchline. Flawless delivery. 9/10
Discussing Baez’s comments about not being able to look at video to make in-game adjustments: “It’s easy to say ‘Just go up there and hit the ball.’ But why don’t you send us your iPhone for four days and see how you feel.” Len is sassy tonight! 7/10
