Is Joe Maddon covering for Wade Davis? Where do Cubs go from here?
Is Cubs manager Joe Maddon taking the heat and covering for Wade Davis while the All-Star closer deals with atypical soreness in his right arm? "No, no," Maddon said Tuesday when asked if Davis felt anything unusual that lingered into the National League Championship Series after last week's all-out effort eliminated the Washington Nationals from the divisional round. The Los Angeles Dodgers took a 2-0 lead in this best-of-seven bullpen battle without Davis throwing a single pitch, the backlash from Cubs fans, Twitter and the national media again putting Maddon on the defensive, the year after he got second-guessed for pushing Aroldis Chapman so hard during the World Series.
