Here’s two things that are true: this week sucked, and this season is as good as it could have ever reasonably been. We go over the awful trip to Colorado and Arizona where the Cubs gave away their entire Wild Card cusion and another tie-breaker to the Diamondbacks, but also find ourselves on a bit of an island because, with the Cubs still .5 games up in the final Wild Card spot…we still have hope? Let’s talk David Ross, the magic of “resting players,” Canario’s big first start, Bullpen Stroman, Steele maybe being allowed to have his first bad game since friggin’ MAY, and what the schedule looks like for these last 11 games. And for old times sake, let’s sh*t on Zach Davies a bit.
