Summary
The Arizona Diamondbacks limp home after being swept by the Chicago Cubs in their three-game set at Wrigley Field. We have more on Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly continuing to struggle, the offense being inconsistent, and why May might be their last chance to turn things around. We also give more flowers to Ildermaro Vargas for being named NL Player of the Month and preview the upcoming series with Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates, who have 19 wins and are somehow in last place in the NL Central. Plus, we have our best answers to your Mailbag Monday questions!
