The New York are still atop the NL East as the "Favs" the Washington Nationals have all of a sudden picked up a NAT-itude trailing N.Y. by just 3.5 games. The Cubbies come off a terrible Motel Swing that saw them lose 3 of 4 in to the Redbirds and two of three to the "Piwowarzy" dba Milwaukee Brewers. Now we get four in Wrigleyville U.S.A. with all sorts of star power on the mound including the Amazins' "Dark Night" dba Matt Harvey.
