Well, yesterday didn’t go according to plan, as the Cubs seven-game winning streak came to an end with just three outs to go in the game.
Hopefully, Jon Lester and the offense can give the Cubs bullpen a little more breathing room tonight, so we can start another winning streak here and now.
Also … I really hope the Cubs win tonight, because if the best case scenario after tonight is a four-game split with the freakin’ Marlins at home that’s going to be a depressing follow-up to the sweep of the Cardinals. Go Cubs.
