Congratulations, you survived the first half of the MLB season. Actually more like 60% of the season, but you know what I mean. The Cubs are 18 games over .500 and all alone atop the NL Central with a +199 run differential that is the highest in the game. And despite the Brewers gaining ground late, the Cubs maintained their division lead by taking two of three from the Yankees in New York.
They won’t play again until Friday, when they welcome the surging Red Sox to Wrigley Field for three games. Winners of their last 10, Boston is looking much better since the shocking trade of Rafael Devers to the Giants.
