There remains just one more week and six games until the All-Star Break, and also incidentally the MLB Draft, before the teams ramp up their efforts for the July 31 trade deadline. The Cubs, of course, keep chugging along, still not having won more than five in a row nor have they lost more than three in a row, and …
