One interesting area is BB & K rate ranking. @Dodgers 2nd-best BB%, 5th-lowest K% in MLB. @Cubs 4th-best BB%, 8th lowest-K%. So patience, but also don't strike out a bunch. That's a sign of a really good offense. Defend the realm. #EverybodyIn#GameofThrones Night. Tonight. pic.twitter.com/Y72FAiL30i The #Cubs face a strong test when they host LA this week.
