Cubs @ Pirates Series Preview: (9/21-9/24)

The Cubs offense has been dreadful in 2020, scoring just three runs this weekend. If anything can wake up the bats its the Pittsburgh Pirates, who are actively tanking and have the pitching to do it.

Chicago has a chance to clinch a playoff spot this series and it would behoove them to do it. Most importantly, let’s get some runs!
