After a brutal slump, he’s now on an MVP tear, proving his mental toughness and elite defense — even when the bat was quiet. The Cubs are riding a 15-4 surge, with Seiya Suzuki hitting his 100th homer and Pete Crow-Armstrong lighting up June. Manager Craig Counsell credits Wrigley’s wind for the magic, but also praises Swanson’s consistency. This is baseball at its most thrilling: resilience, redemption, and a team roaring back into contention.
