When you score 28 runs in a three-game series and you do not sweep the opposition, it should be considered a little more than mildly disappointing. When you lose two of three while putting up four touchdowns it’s nothing short of egregious. Armageddon is here, and it has taken the form of the Cubs bullpen.
Poor Tommy Hottovy, he has quite a bit of work ahead of him if he wants to keep his job beyond this season. At some point, coaches will be held accountable for pitchers who can’t throw strikes.
