We are lucky we haven’t lost 6 in a row. At least it feels that way

 

We’re unlucky we haven’t won 6 in a row.

just throwing away the division over one flaw, cool cool cool

 

Yep, we’re just throwing the division away. The team that will still be in first place at the end of the day and is on pace for *checks notes* 96 wins is just throwing the division away.

does Russell still get booed? I aven't been watching this broken ass team

I haven't been paying close attention to him outside of his always awful at bats, but he still usually gets a smattering of boos, not as thick as when he first arrived, though.

Front office should be embarrassed by that game.

 

Why is an org that employs Addison Russell going to ever be embarrassed by a baseball game?

Letting Russell go was such an easy move for the Cubs to make, for both on and off the field reasons. It was handed to them on a silver platter and they screwed it up. Now they have to wait for him to do something stupid again to justify getting rid of him. Meanwhile, his salary could have paid for a servicable relief pitcher.

I don't mean to belittle your post but what have they done to even make you feel like cutting him will ever be a probability? They absolutely want Russell to be an everyday player, I'm convinced of it.
