## Resource

Shelby Miller’s comeback bid with the Cubs has ended, as he couldn’t meet the bullpen’s demands after only one successful back-to-back pitching day. With time running out for postseason play, the team now turns to other pitchers like Justin Steele and Gavin Hollowell — both sidelined by weather or rehab delays — hoping they can step in if injuries strike. Meanwhile, Dansby Swanson’s return is on hold due to rain, adding another layer of uncertainty as the Cubs juggle health, weather, and playoff prep under constant pressure.
