Cubs closing in on worst offense in baseball

[DiamondMind]

The Cubs currently stand at 255 runs scored, while the KC Royals are in 1st at only 3 runs lower, 252.

 

Why does Sarge still have a job? I mean, his son is hitting .340 for Texas after he left the Cubs for $(@! sake .

prior and wood have been hurt.

Prior is one of the best hitters on the team. :lol:

Sarge isn't the hitting coach anymore. The Cubs decided instead of getting a real hitting coach they decided to swap coaches and make Clines as hitting coach and Sarge at 1B. Great move morons. Pretty ridiculous this coaching staff is still intact.

It would be interesting to see a comparison between the most stable coaching staffs since the start of 2004. I can't imagine many with less turnover than the Cubs over that time, and I don't think there's been a more disappointing team in the league over that time either.

And my guess is...Larry Rothschild and Gene Clines will be the next great coaching switcheroo. With Larry teaching "hitting", and Cline working with the "pitchers." I mean, the Cubs can SAVE SOME MONEY be keeping the same coaches, just moving them to new roles.

Either way he's a coach on the team who is supossed to help with offensive production. It's pathetic, in any other line of work performance is expected and if not achieved, they will find someone else who can do it better.
