<p>MILWAUKEE – “Tell them you got in a Lyft and the driver said the Mets suck!”</p><p>That’s what greeted me when I touched down in New York last Monday.</p><p>Over the course of the next four days, it turned out my hilarious, all-around stereotypical New Yorker of a Lyft driver – shoutout to Larry – was right.</p><p>The <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/cubs" >Cubs</a> dealt the Mets a four-game sweep that sparked team brass in New York to fire the manager.</p><p>Even as an avalanche of pitching injuries threatened to bury them – and still could – the Cubs looked all sorts of back in Queens, scoring 33 runs in three days.</p><p>That offensive funk? No more. Instead, the offense was grooving.
