5-2. Pederson SO w/bags jammed. Ouch.
At press time, the Cubs’ best starter is still doing the limbo, the team can’t hit a lick, and good teams are arriving. Their backs are against the wall — maybe this is how they like it? The Cubs need to show some signs of life soon, instead of floundering. There is water at the bottom of the ocean. Was 2016 once in a lifetime?
If they fail, will we start to see sell-by dates? Or is the time now? C’mon, throwing in the towel is perfectly in tune with the occasion.
