Young Guns Clash in Pivotal Series | Chicago Cubs News

CC Sabathia heaps praise on the Cardinals’ young stars as they gear up for a pivotal weekend showdown against the surging Cubs, led by fiery Pete-Crow Armstrong.

With the Cubs riding a rollercoaster but showing signs of stability, this clash promises high stakes and high energy.
