Mike Mulligan and David Haugh conducted the daily 5 at 5 segment, which began with a discussion about whether the Cubs' 5-1 win over the Mariners on Monday has engendered more confidence or relief for the team's fans. And is it good the Cubs didn't need a home run in their five-run seventh inning Monday or is their power outage disturbing? The guys then debated whether right-hander Yu Darvish's forearm injury or shortstop Javier Baez's thumb injury is a greater concern for the Cubs. The morning crew also had a conversation about utilityman Ben Zobrist's explanation of his absence before discussing whether White Sox rookie outfielder Eloy Jimenez is closer to being a future star or a project. Finally, the guys shared their biggest concerns about the Bears' roster with the season opener against the Packers looming Thursday. (9/3/19)
