The Cubs' 2019 pitching woes have reached historic levels.
After Yu Darvish and a trio of relievers combined to allow 9 runs Thursday evening in Atlanta, the Cubs have now surrendered 46 runs in the first 6 games of the season.
That's the most they've allowed in the first 6 games of any year since 1901:
