The Rundown: Cubs 1 Game Back of Wild Card, Dan Haren and Tommy Hunter Added for Depth, Padres Decide Not to Sell

This season has been filled with tight ballgames, so last night’s 4-1 win almost felt like a laugher. If the Cubs would like to start winning some games by large margins, I’d be just fine with that.

The win, coupled with a Giants loss, puts the Cubs only one game out of the second wild card spot. The Cubs’ offense looks like it might be heating up, and the Brewers roster is pretty depleted now post-deadline. A sweep against Milwaukee would be nice.
