The Cubs just dropped two of three to the Nationals, thanks in large part to their anemic offense and an injury-riddled roster that saw them have to use two players aged 39 or older in Sunday’s lineup. You know things are getting bad when your bench is limited to two guys who should only be regular as long as they’re taking their daily dose of Metamucil. Now the Cubs are in Cobb County to take on the Braves after winning two of three from them at Wrigley last week.
One of those wins was started by Shota Imanaga, who is on the bump trying to repeat that performance.
