Oh, yeah, the Cubs are good.

You got Caleb Theobar, and he has been successful so far.

And maybe it's because of Albert Alzali and heart attack Hector Neris.

Ryan Presley.

Like, the Cubs had a bad run of closers.

Finally, Daniel Palencia comes in and restores order.

And now I got Caleb Theobar going out there at 39th.

Well, if it's not Caleb Theobar without Palencia, then who?

I don't know.

I guess Ben Brown might be the best answer, but because of how short staff their bullpen is, and yes, it is all a problem, because of how short staff their bullpen is, you really need Brown to be able to pitch more than one inning.

And that almost takes him out of closer consideration because, I mean, you got guys, you got journeymen out here journeying, okay?

They are journeying.

Riley Martin, Corbin Martin yesterday.

I can't keep it straight.

Cub or not a Cub.

Not having Hunter Harvey and these guys you thought you were going to be able to depend on is really coming up.

But Craig Council, as you said, pushing all the right buttons, both from a pitching standpoint and from a hitting standpoint.

Understand this.
