		<description><![CDATA[After a brief spasm of activity where the Cubs filled out a spot in the rotation with Tyler Chatwood and a couple spots in the bullpen, we&#8217;re all sitting around watching the water boil again. Or not boil, however that phrase goes. I guess not boil, which is even more boring than watching it boil. [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s no secret that the Cubs rotation has been different in 2017. Many would be quick to suggest that &#8220;different&#8221; is a nicer way of saying &#8220;bad&#8221;. While it&#8217;s certainly true that the results for the rotation have not been as good as in 2016, that does not in itself mean anything, nor does it [&#8230;]]]></description>

They&#8217;re under .500, and there isn&#8217;t an area of the game in which anyone can declare that they&#8217;re actually excelling at this point. Despite some solid individual offensive and defensive performance, they haven&#8217;t put things together as a group in either respect. Same goes [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[John Lackey enters 2017 at 38, after 14 years and almost 2700 innings in the major leagues. The sample of starters who have been pitching at that age, let alone having success, is relatively small. Lackey&#8217;s made it there; what then should&#8212;or could&#8212;we expect from him? The projections naturally give us a starting point. PECOTA [&#8230;]]]></description>
