Well, look at that. The Cubs had a mid-homestand day off and get a couple of guys healthy and they played one of their better start-to-finish in all aspects games. It could be a coincidence. I don’t particularly believe in coincidences though. I saw someone point yesterday that the Cubs have been healthy for a total of about one hour this year. And I even that number overlooks that at the time that Justin Steele was heathy and pitching on opening day, Jameson Taillon was already hurt.
Look, I’m not making excuses for the Cubs. As I recall, the Brewers had significant injuries before the season ever started and one of their key players has not crossed between the lines yet.
