| Anthony Rizzo wielded the lumbar for The Lumbar Yard. |
Studs: Y'all ready for this? What an awesome day for offensive performances. Anthony Rizzo (LY) was a double short of a cycle, drove in 6 and scored 3 runs. Daniel Murphy (LY) had a 3-run triple, singled and stole a base. David Peralta (M) tripled, doubled twice, scored twice and drove in a run. Dexter Fowler (R21) tripled, singled, scored twice and drove in 2. Jay Bruce (AL) had a 3-run homer, a solo homer and an RBI single. Joe Panik (PYB) tripled, singled twice, drove in 3 and scored 3 runs. Jean Segura (PYB) hit a pair of solo homers, although only 1 actually left the yard. Adrian Gonzalez (FF) doubled twice, singled, drove in a run and scored twice.
Duds: Kyle Schwarber's ankle. That looked ugly. Welington Castillo (HE) showed off the form that led the Cubs and Mariners to dump him last year. He went 0 for 4 with an error.
Transactions: We have our first trade of the 2016 season! Pitch You Blockhead, in need of a shortstop who actually plays that position this year, has sent 3B Eugenio Suarez to Hundley Eyes in exchange for Zack Cozart. It was nice having you on the team for a week and a half, son. The Lumbar Yard places OF Ben Revere on the disabled list and signs Angel Pagan to replace him.

| Bam! No, wait. Wrong guy. |
In memoriam: To avoid confusion with your lazy blogger using FF abbreviations for both the Fresh Fish and the Flavortown Fieris, the latter team has changed its name to its 2014 title: Lawyers, Guns & Money. That's right, gang. The Fightin' Zevons are back! Sadly, we must bid a frosted-tipped farewell to Flavortown and the Fieris therein. We're bummed that we'll never get to make Ernesto Frieri jokes or snide comments about the world's douchiest Guy-talian.
