Mike Mulligan and David Haugh conducted the Pick 6 segment, debating a variety of questions.
-- The NBA postponed three playoff games Wednesday after the Bucks refused to take the floor in protest of police brutality. Do you expect the NBA to resume play? Were you surprised by the boycott? What does it achieve and how can it be successful?
-- Did the Cubs choosing to play their game against the Tigers after outfielder Jason Heyward chose to protest by taking himself out of the lineup represent a team lacking unity? Or was it a team respecting Heyward’s wishes to play without him? How surprised were you either way?
-- What did you think of the way the White Sox shook off their no-hitter hangover to earn a 10-3 win against the Pirates on Wednesday? What was the most interesting no-hitter related information you learned?
-- Cubs left-hander Jon Lester gave up eight hits and just one earned run in five innings against the Tigers before the bullpen blew it in a loss Wednesday. Was Lester’s solid outing more significant than the loss? Did he remove doubt? Is he the third on your list of Cubs starting pitchers whom you’d trust?
-- How does Bears running back David Montgomery’s injury affect the way you look at their season? Is the potential loss of Montgomery as serious as injuries to receiver Allen Robinson and defensive lineman Akiem Hicks?
-- Do you like the idea of an MLB playoff bubble with the American League playing in southern California and the National League in Texas? With half of the regular season done, do you think it’s a good way of ensuring a finish?
