Cubs manager more concerned with day to day things

MILWAUKEE (MCT) — While the Chicago Cubs are on pace to lose 100 games for only the third time in franchise history, manager Dale Sveum doesn’t think it’s affecting the players.

“Everybody knows that the 100-loss thing is obviously a number,” Sveum said. “You’re still going day to day. You’re not worried about the final record as much as winning that day.

“That’s the bottom line. Obviously no one wants to lose 100 games. You have to plug away every single day, grind it out.”
