I actually enjoy writing these posts, but I’m boycotting detailed breakdowns until the Cubs score some flippin’ runs. Do you hear that, Cubs? Bare bones writeups and no one gets their name written out until I see crooked numbers again! That should get things moving in the right direction.
Javier Assad will be the third Cubs starter in a row to face the Braves with a perfect record and a sub-2.00 ERA. Shota Imanaga is still spotless with a 0.96 ERA even though his team lost because that’s what happens when you don’t score. Jameson Taillon took an L on Tuesday even though he only allowed two earned runs, which is again what happens when you don’t score.
