Bryant played in the first game of a scheduled doubleheader today (he only hit 1 HR, but he almost had another). The second game was rained out, and then Jesse Rogers dropped the bomb we were all waiting for. This is slightly different timing than we would expect: Jed and Theo generally like to let their prospects open on the road to get comfortable before Wrigley happens to them, but extenuating circumstances have obviously thrown a wrench into those plans.
