Cubs 4, Diamondbacks 3: You keep me hangin’ on

I’m gonna make a little teeny tiny suggestion here.

Maybe it’s not such a great idea for the Cubs to keep signing former Astros relief pitchers.

We went through a roller-coaster ride with Hector Neris last year until he was let go, and the Ryan Pressly Era hasn’t begun well.

Pressly had a shaky ninth inning, serving up a two-run homer to Eugenio Suárez, and only this great play by Dansby Swanson put this game in the “W” column [VIDEO].
