The second part of the Crosstown Classic has arrived, this time on the South Side. Both teams are having terrible years, and the White Sox are way worse, but still. While I’m sure fans of both teams will flock to the park for the rivalry, it doesn’t seem like people are as excited as usual. I talked to Sara Sanchez about both teams, and how we’re feeling about the series and the rest of the season.

Here is what we discussed:

• What’s new with the Cubs
• The Cubs probably won’t make it to the postseason
• The National League is silly
• Trade deadline thoughts
• The final player from the 2016 team, Kyle Hendricks won’t be a Cub next year
• Pitching breakdowns
• Keys to winning, threats, and fears

You can find Sara on Twitter and our sister site Bleed Cubbie Blue.
