Cubs President Jed Hoyer says early signs indicate it's trending toward a seller’s market.

The Cubs bullpen has been at its best this month , with a third -ranked 2.76 ERA.

The emergence of left-hander Drew Pomeranz and right-handers Brad Keller and Daniel Palencia in high-leverage spots has been valuable.

And then you turn around and look up and you’re playing in the postseason — you realize everything makes sense, like it was our year . “And I’m not saying that right now, but to this point, the Cubbies are a good team. This could very much be LCS championship, in the World Series . We’ve got to go out there and put it all together.”.
