Kasey Ignarski, who has a Cubs site which includes, among other things, this cool page showing all Cub uniform numbers since 1932, wrote me this morning to point out a mistake I made in yesterday's post:
I was reading your BLOG today...and you mention the Cubs reversed their 2-4 homestand with a 4-2 road trip. This is wrong. Their last homestand they had a 3-3 record. They lost 2 out of 3 to the Diamondbacks but won 2-3 from the Rockies (including the rain delayed many times Mothers Day game). Minor point, but I thought I would point it out.
Well, of course. That Mother's Day game only felt like a loss. Thanks, Kasey.
The Cubs are 10-6 at home, and this upcoming homestand against the Giants and Cardinals is critical, as they all are, but especially considering that after that, they'll be playing nine games against the Astros in the following three weeks.
