Sounds like plan is by September. Not sure if it's anything more than conjecture at this point though.

Like Phelps trade. Haven't heard anything on Morrow recently.

come on cubs! beat those red birds!

Another new lineup. Another day the offense is struggling.

Bryant,Rizzo, Baez, Contreras ,even Hayward is viable firepower to not get blanked 3 + times through the order.

Could easily d3scribe it as lack of creativity, having this same lineup 2-3 years and still not being able to find anything sustainable.

Just thought about how maddon overplays matchups but guess what, all it takes is a bullpen change to turn the lineup upside down.

I think we've lost the desire or maybe players since Fowler left to even try to manufacture runs by playing small ball. The big hitters are going to go through streaks and when they do we have nothing.

got a win today, so that's good. if we can bury the brewers and only have to deal with the cardinals for the stretch run that would be good

zobrist is starting a month long rehab

Sweep at home. Let's build and get this momentum going on the road!

homers flying out tonight

the sweep was huge

for crying out loud, lets not have them fly out this much

i swear, usually my jinxing the team doesn't work this quickly

good homestand, now its back on the road for 10 games. hopefully we can continue to play well and keep the division out of reach

huge win today, keep it up cubs!

Was thinking we might never win on the road again this year.

its wild how different the home/away split is this year. the past couple years this team hasn't had these road issues have they?

No. This has been a very odd season for home/road splits. They haven't had a sub .500 road record since 2014.

ok, back at home - let's go cubs!

rizzo getting on a home run tear would be good

another win today, but that was a heck of a game last night woo boy

castellanos has been great since he's gotten here

lester really doesn't have it lately

also the uniforms were a really interesting choice

not a good time to get swept. had to look at wildcard standings for the first time all year

come on cubs!

darvish has really turned it on, which is good because lester has fallen apart - now hendricks had a bad night, but the bats are cooking so far
