## Resource

Ten games into the season, the Cubs have already placed 40 percent of their Opening Day rotation on the injured list. The short-term outlook for Matthew Boyd appears better than Cade Horton’s situation, but the organization’s depth is being severely tested in April and the major-league club simply isn’t playing well right now. What’s the real level of concern here? The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney are back to talk it through with insights from the clubhouse and the manager’s office.
