Nobody has allowed more than 5 hits.
In two winning starts for the Cubs, here is Quintana’s stat line:
13 IP, 8 hits, 3 R, 2 BB, 19 K, ERA 2.08, WHIP 0.769
Those are top of the rotation numbers.

Great points. They will wind the Central handily. The Wilson acquistion today is about the post season. You have to have a lockdown bullpen. The Dodgers do, Cleveland does, and Houston's is pretty good too. Washington did add two guys but they still have a ways to go.
But I think even the Cubs realize this year's Dodgers team is several lengths superior to the 2016 edition which lost in the NLCS.
