9-2 over the Giants. Offense is steal dealing. Very few holes in that lineup. Swanson on a tear. 3/4. Thanks Braves for trading him! Much appreciated!!

Bandwagon fan? The Braves didn't trade Swanson to the Cubs. The Braves made Swanson a fair offer and Swanson chased the money

No better duo I’d rather listen to than Steve Stone and Harry Caray!

Starting pitching has been solid despite all the injuries. Good lineup up and down the order.

Collin Rea has been spectacular. 4-0 since he replaced Steele in the rotation and he's pitched against the best teams in baseball and the Cubs won all of his starts, can't say enough.

Absolutely exceeded expectations.

The mlb was so stupid in allowing this to go on like that. They are even more stupid now with blackouts. It’s almost as if they don’t want the sport to grow

If Matt Shaw figures it out soon, the lineup could get even better. No production from 3b at all so far.

I think he'll be back by Memorial day and I think he'll be better than the assorted bunch we've got there now at least. And he has speed which is useful.

I know many Cub fans wanted Bregman, and he's started out hot this year, but man over $40 million a year and the very real possibility you'd be paying that again next year.....man even being an LSU and Bregman guy I did not want to go there.

LOL. a cardinal? He might not be a cub, by why the hell would he go to that floundering arse franchise? They need about 5 Tuckers to make a difference. And then they’d still have poo for pitching and absolutely no farm help on the way. And they aren’t paying what it would take anyway

I wasn’t mad at it at all. Would be nice to have right now, but hindsight is 20/20. Confident Shaw will live up to the hype
