Bleed Cubbie Blue · Jul 19, 2018
State of the NL Central: July 19
I hadn’t actually planned on doing a recap this week, what with it being All-Star week and today being the first game back from the break. However, something changed to make it essential that I do the update.
The Cubs are in first place in the N.L. Central.
After languishing in second place for what felt like months on end, the Cubs have surpassed the Brewers and done so in style, with some moments that reminded us all why several Cubs became All-Stars. So let’s take a look at what happened last week to shake up the standings.
Chicago Cubs 55-38
