I’ve got bad news and worse news about the Chicago Cubs.
Here, let me start with the worse news, maybe the rest of this recap will feel better in comparison. (Probably not, but what the heck.)
The Cubs picked just about the worst possible time to match their season-high losing streak at five games with Sunday night’s 6-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.
One week ago, they were two games out of the top wild card and three games out of first place and either position seemed possible.
Now, even though baseball-reference has the Cubs at a 55.
