too lazy to look, when was the last time the cubs won a doubleheader?

 

August 16, 2016 vs Milwaukee. I believe one of those games was the one where KB had the 3 HR, 2 double game.

 

Since then, every double header we’ve had except for 1 has been split.

 

Another oddity I noticed when looking up that stat: the Cubs played 0 doubleheaders last year. Weird

Weird, no idea how I got that mixed up. He did have a 5-5 2 HR game in the Milwaukee series though. I miss KB being an Uber elite hitter

Cubs bullpen has a 3.32 ERA (6th) and 3.17 FIP (4th) over the last two weeks. I certainly don't think it's a good pen, but I think now that Ross has had some time to figure guys out down there it's gotten to adequate.

 

We really need Kimbrel's gains to be real. Even if he's no longer historically great, if he's merely good that helps a ton. Tepera looks GOOD, and while there's certainly some luck involved Jeffress is starting to look pretty good too. Sadler has also been great since his first clunker of an appearance. Wick and Ryan are still finding it, but don't look irrevocably broken.

 

It's a decent group now that Winkler and Underwood have been identified as the weak links. Replace them with more talented guys, probably one via trade and one with one of the live arms down at South Bend (the dream is Marquez or Carraway doing some rookie David Price/K-Rod things), and suddenly you've got a pen you can go pretty far with.

I'd settle for him being a competent hitter
