The Crosstown Classic provided some playoff-type atmosphere. And some buzz that's been missing for a while. Plus Rondon the unnamed closer, Grimm the other-kind-of-closer, all things Utley, and crafty cephalopods in Tuesday's Cub Tracks.
From Comcast SportsNet Chicago:
- The Cubs are still keeping up their momentum after a big off-season while many other teams that made a big splash are fading, writes Patrick Mooney.
- Whether or not the Cubs land Chase Utley, Mooney says that ultimately the Cubs are going to win or lose based on the performance of their young hitters.
