Chicago Cubs Lineup: Hammel Looks to Get on Track, La Stella Returns

The Chicago Cubs (84-47) have been on fire in the month of August, going 21-6 so far. That’s their best month of the season.

I’m pretty sure they’re going to be happy once this series is done.

Tommy La Stella is officially back. We mentioned his return yesterday, it’s sure to be a boost, assuming that’s possible.
