Thank heaven for small sample sizes. It’s been a rough week(ish) for Cubs pitching. This last time through the order wasn’t particularly pretty for any of the Cubs starters. There were issues. There were control issues. There were walk issues. There was an outing that fell apart after a balk. And yes, there were a few reasons to believe that it’s just been an impossible task for the starters to get settled in this April, but I’ve got to be honest, no one would call the last week of Cubs pitching pretty.
This was one of two okay starts of the week and it wasn’t particularly pretty.
