They’re too good to be sloppy. Diamondbacks:lost 9 straight to start August only to go 12-3 in the next 15. It’s been a bizarre stretch but they’re surging at the right time. Cubs:consistently the most unlucky team by Run Differential compared to W-L record....

Because it’s about my favorite and yet most difficult topic to discuss. And help me make sense a metric ton of issues surrounding this particular birthday.
