Mike Mulligan and David Haugh conducted the daily 5 at 5 segment, which began with a discussion about the Cubs' three-game road series against the Mets that starts Tuesday. How important is it to beat the Mets? Should the Cubs be expected to win the series just because they need it? The guys then debated which scenario is worse for Cubs fans: Making the playoffs as a wild-card team and losing in the play-in game or missing the playoffs altogether? The morning crew then had a discussion about the White Sox: If you exclude July, their record is 53-53. Using the same math, the Cubs are 59-50. How much have the White Sox closed the gap on the Cubs this season? Does it matter? In light of Sports Illustrated's prediction that the Bears will finish last in the NFC North, the guys then had a discussion about what should be considered the most legitimate source of doubt about the team. Finally, the guys debated whether the Bears need an upgrade at backup quarterback. Should general manager Ryan Pace be checking the waiver wire every day? (8/27/19)
