Kevin is out of town this week so Sara Sanchez pinch hit (her wRC+ is outstanding). 

Anyway, a 1-5 homestand after a tough loss in London was certainly not what the doctor ordered. Nor was blowing a 6-0 lead in Milwaukee on Monday in a series the Cubs really, really need to win. The good news? Ian Happ made two phenomenal throws yesterday, one to keep the game going in the bottom of the 10th and one to end it in the bottom of the 11th. With only 5 games remaining before the All-Star break, can the Cubs make a push to narrow the lead in the Central? Adam will be there in person to watch it go down at Yankee Stadium this weekend. God save him.
