Yeah almost one month ago (July 12) the Cubs were actually a 1/2 game closer. The lead has never been below 5 games and has never been more than 7.5 (for a day) since the beginning of July.
I probably would have been upset at any two of our top 30 guys going for this return but I really like Ragsdale and Frias. And so do a lot of people outside our little bubble. Bummer but hoping May can do his thing and get us over the hump.
