Cubs @ White Sox Series Preview: (9/25-9/27)

14 comments

We’ve reached the final series of the 2020 regular season. When this crazy COVID season began it was unclear that would happen. Also the Cubs made the playoffs, so that is great news.

Chicago has been unable to clinch the NL Central due to a prolonged offensive slump. Scoring three runs in three games against the lowly Pirates is not great. The Cubs look to spark the bats on the South Side with three games at the White Sox.

The Sox took the AL Central by storm, but pitching issues have led to a 3-7 skid. They are in the playoffs, however they now are a game behind the Twins for first. Tim Anderson and MVP-Candidate Jose Abreu are having monster years.

The Cubs need to get in gear here, the playoffs start Wednesday. If they hit like they have been it will be a short stay.
