7/2 Cubs (Arrieta) @ Mets (DeGrom) 12:10, WGN

[Andy]

OK, now you absolutely have no excuse to let Jake pitch the 9th.

Agreed, we have a billion relievers, let someone who hasn't worked a while pitch one.

 

And it can't be good for Ramirez' efforts to get back into form to sit for basically a week after his first outing.

And Arrieta's next scheduled start is against St. Louis. No harm in saving a few bullets for that game.

[Gilby]

Going 7-0 against a team right behind us is awesome.

[Deeg]

OK, maybe Ramirez is hurt.

[Andy]

Wood coming in. Good decision, and great work Arrieta.

(I'm super late with this) Montero is alive! What a delightful win.

[UMFan83]

1 run allowed in 29 innings this series...crazy....11 runs allowed to the mets in 7 games this year

[DiamondMind]

RIP Mets

[Gilby]

That road trip wasn't so bad after all.

[rawaction]

Cubs pitchers threw 73 of 105 pitches for strikes today.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Even Ron Santo would have enjoyed this trip to New York, eh?

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Total gut instinct-move, but I kinda want to keep Starlin up there instead of Fowler.

 

Madness, I know.

This was a total Jerry Seinfeld couple of weeks

I almost refuse to believe this is possible. Only 2 series sweeps in the last 100 years? Seriously? They've been bad, but that bad?
