“Baby, there’s an enormous crowd of people and they’re all after my blood.” – Three Dog Night, The Show Must Go On
I can’t tell if the Cubs are good, bad, lucky, well-managed, or a little bit of each. Even though they’re tied with the Brewers for first place after taking two of three from Milwaukee over the weekend, the wins seem too one-dimensional. Chicago’s starting pitching has been great, but the bullpen is far too shaky while the team’s offense often struggles. The Cubs were 3-for-22 (.136) with runners in scoring position during the series.
