Michael Busch has 5 hits (including two 2Bs and a 3B) in his last three games. Hopefully, this is a sign of him adjusting back.

Meanwhile, Morel is back.

Since April 20: 136 wRC+ with a 13.8 BB% and a 25.9 K%.

Also, 4HRs in last six games.

Like this was almost a PROBLEM.

Swanson nearly missed that out by lobbing it to second lol. Anyone see that?

This is what I keep trying to explain to those who were calling for Keegan to close.

He just can't quite do that. You have to just accept 2-3 great innings from him at a time, every 3 days or whatever.

I, for one, am SHOCKED that Hector Neris walked the first batter.

There we go, Patrick! PHEW. That's a big run.

Hey who needs insurance runs when you have a shutdown bullpen and lights out closer?

Whoop there it is

The bullpen is an issue.

Still gotta score more than 1 run.

Christopher Morel's season in (almost) perfect thirds:

First 11 games (46 PAs): 175 wRC+; 3HRs
Next 10 games (41 PAs): -32 wRC+, 0 HRs
Last 10 games (42 PAs): 113 wRC+, 2 HRs

Does anybody else feel the inevitability of drama this weekend between the Cubs and Brewers?

Something is going to happen. I can smell it.

Oh this is fun. I got one:

- you gotta high-five everyone who wants one

Absolutely incredible. We stan Christopher Morel.

I know NOTHING.

OMGOMGOMG

The Cubs Just Won the Game on a Crazy-Long, Two-Replay-Reviewed Double-Play at the Plate!

Amazing! Let’s see if we can’t help Norm and his daughter get Morel’s attention!

Let's go, big guy. Your thrown awaits.

Is Morel Turning That Corner? Dansby and the Errors, Counsell on the Defense, and Other Cubs Bullets

This team just really needs Seiya Suzuki and Cody Bellinger, man. Badly.
