For anxiety-ridden Chicago Cubs fans, the final two obstacles to MLB's postseason party couldn’t be more pronounced.
Cubs manager David Ross looks out from the dugout before a game against the Rockies on Friday, Sept. 22, 2023, at Wrigley Field., who has tried to right the ship after a 3-10 skid before the weekend sweep of the Rockies.
Ross opted to skip veteran Kyle Hendricks for the Braves series, using Jameson Taillon and Marcus Stroman after Steele. All three starters need to be at the top of their game to avoid a devastating sweep by a Braves team seemingly making history by the day. Taillon, whose last start was skipped, has a 6.11 ERA in the first inning and 6.43 in the second. He often recovers, albeit after putting the Cubs in a hole.
Cubs reliever Julian Merryweather closes out the ninth inning against the Rockies on Sunday, Sept. 24, 2023, at Wrigley Field.
