Cubs 21 games into the season

As promised, I was going to do a progress check on the Cubs at 21 games. For the most part, the Cubs have come together. There are problems that have been there from the beginning, KB....YD.... and although most players have stepped up the the plate, Baez and Heyward should not be carrying the team on offense.

Last post I said the Cubs needed to be near 500, and of tonight, they are better than 500. As of tonight with 11 wins and 10 losses for .524 and two games out. The biggest improvement is Cubs pitching. Everyone but Yu has been really doing their jobs well.
