[Derwood]

Kyle missed a meatball. Damn

[TMan92]

Nice at bat Kyle

[Tryptamine]

I just don't understand how this team can be so terrible on the road.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Crap. That was first-half Cubs this game.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Can Vic score on a single?

The world may never know.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Brutal loss.

 

This one is on Hobag Joe

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Maybe they hit more dongs at home. That's pretty much the way they score runs.

[Old Style]

horsefeathering piece of horsefeathers Strop. horsefeathers this shitty ass bullpen. horsefeathers the shitty ass bottom of the lineup.

[Cubswin11]

horsefeathering terrible game

[Bryants Disco Ball]

[We Got The Whole 9]

[Derwood]

Fourth fewest road wins in MLB, tied with the Marlins, better than only the Orioles, Royals and Tigers

[Old Style]

This team needs 4 new relievers

And about 4 new position players.

[soccer10k]

5/10 on the fake rally scale. Needed Schwarber to reach to really boost it up.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

From a baseball perspective, I feel sad. They could have easily won this game and they just flubbed it up.

They are going to have to figure it out real fast, because I think like 18 of the next 24 are on the road. Or something close to that.

What’s their record on the road since the stupid 1-8 start or whatever? I’m guessing things even out a bit soon, they aren’t this bad on the road or just inherently bad there. It’s a dumb random sample.

 

Found it: They are 17-20 on the road taking out the crazy start, that’s more like it. Sweep a series or win multiple series on a trip and it’s basically back in line with where it should be outside the first trip.

[BigSlick]

The 2019 Cubs have lost, and I mean this seriously, about 20 games they should have won. Just incredible

Not particularly a bad road team. Just a flawed baseball team.

[Edith Cox]

18-28 on the road and 5-0 of that vs last place Miami and Seattle the two biggest tankers makes me feel we are going to miss the playoffs as we have more road games than home games left.

[17 Seconds]

same old horsefeathers

[CyHawk_Cub]

I hate when the Cubs play in San Francisco.

There was one game a couple years ago that was quite enjoyable.

[17 Seconds]

the home/road stuff is irrelevant. the problems are that the bullpen is suspect and we have a few nightmarish hitters getting way too much playing time, which keeps the top-heavy offense from scoring as many runs as they should.

 

it's just crazy that theo made those comments about the offense at the end of last season, and we're still sticking with almora/russell/descalso getting regular playing time. we're just giving away so many at-bats on guys that have basically no chance of ever being good. it's the type of thing that i'd expect from pre-theo cubs.
