Chicago Cubs open first week of August with must win games

After falling flat on their faces to begin the second half of the 2015 campaign, the Chicago Cubs are on a bit of a hot-streak having won five in a row – four coming in a sweep over the Milwaukee Brewers this past weekend.

For the first time in a long time, this club who hasn’t been to the post-season since 2008 is 10 games above .500. It’s a great feeling, but just because they hit that mark doesn’t mean everybody needs to get comfortable with it. If they have any hopes of reaching the playoffs, they’re going to need to pile it on – especially this week.
