Lovely offensive performance tonight

They got completely horsefeathers by the ump multiple times to swing ABs. One of the worst called games I’ve ever seen.

Yeah, Jon got some calls, too. Given the matchup, I'll take the big zone benefiting both teams pitching today.

Idiot manager back at it. Wick pitched last night and threw ~20 tonight and extending him here along with Wick being a guy who isn’t use to 1+. Just a bad, bad manager.

And now you pull him when you can’t have contact for our relief pitcher who Ks the fewest amount of guys who also pitched last night. Great job moron

fuggin classic cubs. cant wait to see what kind of nightmares unfold tomorrow and sunday as they begin their quest to finish behind the brewers yet again

 

Why are you even here? You clearly don’t like the team. They do nothing but annoy you. If you’re just going to come here after they lose and do your usual “the Cubs are blowing it again” schtick, just go away.

I promise I wont post after a single loss the rest of the year if the cubs win a single game this weekend.

Miserable to watch

 

After not being shut out for the first 42 games of the season they’ve now been shut out in 2 of the last 3 games. Basically every hitter is in some kind of slump right now except Contreras. Some of them have been in slumps most of the year. Brutal

remember when theo said this.... 2 years ago?

 

"Our offense broke somewhere along the lines."

 

"I have never been a part of something like this offensively," Epstein said. "I never want to be a part of this again."

The downfalls of a 60 game season and only being ~45 games in. We’d be in mid May right now in a normal year and all this would be noise.

the fact that the season ends in like 15 games isn't making people more worried about them than if it were 45 games into a normal season. it's not about the length of the suckage as much as the degree of it. there are slumps and then there is whatever is happening with bryant and baez. i'm confident in baez rebounding next year, but kb just looks completely broken down.

Bryant is 7 for his last 22 with 3 XBH, you can see he’s kinda coming out of it. Javy is in an absolute funk but he has looked like horsefeathers before and flipped a switch but his comments about not having video have me concerned and even for Javy this is a deeper funk than usual. With KB we also have an injury, unfortunately, once again on top of SSS.

 

I have far more confidence in KB moving forward, assuming health, vs Javy. Javy’s only really been elite for 2018 and early 2019 (I believe that’s the rough window). Outside of that he’s just been average to good. 2018 Javy may be the exception and not the rule. I mean Javy’s 2018 isn’t even a top 3 year for KB. KB was more valuable last year than Javy too.
