The Colorado Rockies (1-3) takes their road trip to the Windy City, where they will kick off a three-game series vs. the Chicago Cubs (1-2) on Monday at 1:10 PM in Chicago, Illinois.
Team Form:
The Rockies score only 1 run in the fourth and final game of their series vs the Arizona Diamondbacks. Colorado broke into the win column in the third game as Charlie Blackmon, Nolan Jones and Ezequiel Tovar each drove in 2 runs in a 9-4 victory.
The Cubs also got their breakthrough win in the final game of their series vs. the Texas Rangers. Ian Happ tied his career best with four hits in a 9-5 win. He also drew a run-scoring walk that broke a 5-5 tie and ignited a four-run rally for Chicago.
Pitchers Matchup:
Dakota Hudson gets the nod to start for the Rockies. The 29-year-old right hander started 12 times in 18 games last season, going 6-3 with 4.98 ERA and 45 strikeouts.
Shota Imanaga will be making his Cubs debut on Monday. The Japanese hurler looks to bounce back from a rough spring training where he learned the quality of MLB batters the hard way. In the spring training matchup against the Dodgers, Imanaga allowed three home runs and struck out five in 2 ½ innings.
