The Chicago Cubs reportedly still do not know if they will sell or not at the MLB trade deadline, but most signs point to a sell-off as Chicago appears unlikely to pull up from the tailspin it's been in the last few months.
While Chicago sits near .500 at 44–49, it is 10 games back in the NL Central and 3.5 games back from a wild-card slot. A three-game winning streak has inspired some confidence, but even a strong run of a few weeks may not be enough to convince the Cubs not to sell.
