Welcome to today’s edition of Cub Tracks news and notes™, featuring material from current beat writers, bloggers, and the occasional in-house habitué, moonlighting. These pieces center around #Cubs, #MiLB, and #MLB baseball and attempt to distill the zeitgeist into a potent potable. Please enjoy immoderately.
Monday was an off-day for the Cubs. Patrick Wisdom was not in the Home Run Derby, which I didn’t watch. I rooted for Kyle Schwarber in absentia. Today’s edition had an early deadline, though, so even had I watched, I wouldn’t have the details.
