The stupid off-day after Opening Day is always so much worse after a Cubs loss in the opener …
Opening Day will always take on outsized importance in the minds of Cubs fans, both because it’s a holiday and because it our first game to watch, unpack, deconstruct, and analyze since October. I’m guilty of it every year, but I try very hard not to go too far. For example, yes, I found the Matthew Boyd deterioration after the third inning to be concerning after his mixed spring. On the other hand, he got an unbelievable 20 whiffs on just 63 pitches, and a whopping 44.4% CSW. Most days, that’ll bode pretty darn well. But Boyd got hit HARD in the 4th (he said his fastball started getting on plane a little too much, becoming hittable, and he wasn’t able to make the adjustment in time), and also gave up his one walk of the day at the worst possible time. Some days, that’s all it takes to create a hole too big for the offense to dig out."I got to make an adjustment faster … I'll be better from it."

— ESPN Insights (@ESPNInsights) March 26, 2026 Brewers owner Mark Attanasio says the revenue hit from the RSN fallout the last couple years is $20 million annually for the Brewers, which, on the one hand, is not catastrophic, but, on the other hand, is like 6% of their total revenue. At the margins of an organization, that’s the kind of money that could otherwise go directly to big league player payroll. I’m not crying any tears for the Brewers or any MLB owner, mind you, but that does seem like a pretty substantial amount of revenue drop from a few years ago.
