Coming off a sweep of the dismantled-for-spare-parts Marlins, the Cubs are feeling good returning to Wrigley with their best record since they were 1-1. Now at 8-9 and still in the infancy of an already manic 2019 season, the Cubs could conceivably be in first place by Sunday evening if they take care of business against the Diamondbacks and the Dodgers do them a solid and sweep the Brew Crew.
Following a series in Miami where all three phases of play looked pretty darn good, the Cubs will look to continue the same kind of stellar play that saw them outscore the Marlins 17-2.
