The Cubs took three out of four games in Cincinnati over the weekend, which is excellent news. But probably the best news is that both Jose Quintana and Yu Darvish pitched well, combining over the final two victories to pitch 13 innings with three hits allowed and one earned run. Just imagine how good the Cubs could be if Quintana and Darvish are pitching up to their potential!
In segment two, I brought on Jeremy Deimer and Pat Nagle from the Wrigleyville Nation podcast to chat a bit more about what's going on with the Cubs. That includes a little chat about Albert Almora Jr. and his outstanding projections for the rest of the season. Finishing out, I did my quick rundown of the NL Central and updated the standings.
