Chicago Cubs: Dansby Swanson talks on moving forward after another series win

The Chicago Cubs improved to 39-36 on the season following their 8-6 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night. Significantly, it gave them their second series win a row. Heading into last weekend, the Cubs had not won a single series in over a month.

Still, their two series wins were against two of the worst teams in the National League. Furthermore, those two teams also beat them in their two series prior. In a stretch of 12 games against the worst NL teams of 2026, Chicago was just 6-6.

Still, series wins are important going forward, something shortstop Dansby Swanson knows all too well.

Chicago Cubs shortstop Dansby Swanson wants to keep stacking wins

Many Cubs position players have been struggling from the plate this season. Perhaps this is true for none more than Swanson, who has seen fans calling on him to be benched for weeks.

Last night, though, he was 1-4 with a home run and two RBI. Going forward, he knows the key to Chicago’s success this season will be stacking series wins:

“If you just focus on winning every series from here on out, I think we’ll be pretty pleased with where we end up. We just gotta keep on going.”

“If you just focus on winning every series from here on out, I think we’ll be pretty pleased with where we end up. We just gotta keep on going.”

With his performance on Wednesday night, Swanson is now hitting .176/.280/.318 with eight home runs and 30 RBI on the season.

Needless to say, in order for the Cubs to win more series, he is going to have to show some serious improvement at the plate.
