Chicago Cubs: Bullpen improving; Daniel Descalso starts strong
It didn’t take long for the Chicago Cubs bullpen to show its cracks. Well, full-blown holes. But the staff may be turning the corner, and able to support a potent offense.
The first week for the Chicago Cubs pitching staff as a whole–minus Jon Lester–needs to be thrown out. But over the last three games, they’ve shown the ability to keep teams at bay, especially in the bullpen. If this were three games against the Pittsburgh Pirates, I’d understand your skepticism. But the first-place Brewers were part of that, which is why I still have hope for things to level off and play solid baseball this season.
