CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs have made the most of the month of August over the past two seasons, which led to the franchise's first World Series championship in 108 years in 2016 before the Cubs reached the National League Championship Series last season.
But if the Cubs are to continue their stretch of deep postseason runs that dates back to 2015, they will have to find their footing as they get rolling into August. A team that has battled inconsistency all season must hope that this month is as good as it has been in the past.
