It’s audition time for Cubs’ rookie starters. Next up: Keegan Thompson on Saturday

Nothing to see here, folks.

Not Friday at Wrigley Field, where the Cubs got back to their losing ways in a 6-2 game against the lowly Royals.

Not with playing-out-the-string Zach Davies — the subpar veteran starter who in no way, shape or form is part of the Cubs’ wide-open future — on the hill.

Not even with the U.S. Navy Blue Angels flying for hours of practice in the skies above the ballpark ahead of Saturday’s and Sunday’s lakefront air shows.

OK, fine, the Blue Angels were kind of cool to watch. They certainly were more entertaining than one of two games on Friday’s major league schedule involving opponents with losing records.
