NEW YORK – If the All-Star break is an in-season finish line, the Cubs haven’t exactly been sprinting toward it.
They were trounced by the Yankees 11-0 on Friday, after dropping two out of three in Minnesota. With just a one-game lead on the Brewers, the Cubs are by no means guaranteed to enter the break in first place in the National League Central.
Even after the break, however, the Cubs will still have 66 games to play. That’s plenty of time to build – or lose – a lead in the division race.
