The Rundown: Welcome to Deadline Day, Cubs Lose to Reds, Candelario Trade Signals Hoyer All-In, Verlander Has Multiple Suitors

“Right outside this lazy summer home, you ain’t got time to call your soul a critic, no.” – Grateful Dead, Eyes of the World

Marcus Stroman put his team in an almost inescapable hole yesterday, but the Cubs were just a few inches away from beating the Reds anyway last night anyway. Cody Bellinger just missed a home run in the 3rd inning and Christopher Morel almost hit one in the 8th. It wasn’t meant to be, so now the Cubs will send Justin Steele to the mound tonight to try to even the series at a game apiece.
