I sorta like the idea of Schwarber batting second. He's not really been much of a singles hitter lately and he has proven he still walks a bunch which you certainly don't want to do in front of Bryant the way he's hitting which should lead to hittable pitches.

Batting 2nd would suit him perfectly if he the Schwarber of the last couple games and not the Schwarber that Kd 8 times in row cause he swinging at high pitches trying to jack one 500 feet..

Didnt he hit 2nd in WS

Like I said early on, this will end up being a nice start from Lackey

I have to wonder how much the plantar facitis was hurting him prior to the break. Since then he's got a 3.62 ERA(not including tonight) pitching 32.1 innings. Obviously that's not a world beater number but it's much more in line with his 2016 season.

The Cubs will not make the playoffs if they do not fix their bullpen. It's as simple as that. It is far and away the single most important aspect of a major league baseball team. More important than starting pitching. More important than hitting. More important than fielding. More important than coaching.

What a garbage call that was. Zobrist was not attempting to bunt. That umpiring crew can suck it.

From the bad bullpen to the blown Zobrist call, that loss would've sucked. W
