Cubs Push for World Series with Gausman and Holmes | Chicago Cubs News

The Cubs are on a hot streak, sweeping the Dodgers and pulling off a wild extra-inning win over Toronto, fueled by clutch hits and shaky defense. With injuries plaguing their rotation, they landed pitching gems Kevin Gausman and Clay Holmes at the deadline — missing out on top prize Tarik Skubal, who went to the Dodgers. Despite that, Cubs brass believe their moves give them a real shot at a World Series run, especially as Gausman steps in and Holmes returns from injury. The Dodgers remain the heavy favorites, but with a stacked lineup and newfound pitching depth, the Cubs are ready to fight tooth and nail for October glory.
