4/14 Cubs (Arrieta) @ Milwaukee (Burnes) 12:30

This offense defies explanation. You'd think in 12 games you'd have at least one "baseball is random and mysterious" offensive breakout game. All the other bad offenses in baseball have had at least 1-2 so far. But the Cubs still haven't gotten even 6 runs in a game.

Heyward has hit the ball hard all 3 times today at least, maybe he’ll go on one of his 25-45 game stretches where he’s basically Trout here soon. That’s all I got.

They’ve had a grand total of 1 inning where they’ve scored more than 2 runs.

The overall offense embodies Ross’ career, even worse. They are playing like their managers career.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Well, I guess Maples has been ok. They still obviously don't trust him for anything more than mop-up duty though.

Were the HBPs on Joc and Happ international? I turned it off

[UMFan83]

Every other team in baseball has had at least 2 games where they've scored 6+ runs except the Mets (who have done it once and have only played 7 total games) and Cubs

someone buy these guys some Adderall

Fun fact: two of our starters have a higher OBP than SLG. And the OBP sucks for both

I can’t wait for the part where they homer in game 7 of the World Series.

I feel like, in the good old days, you'd have games like this once every weeks at most, and you'd be able to write it off as no big deal. Now it's happening twice a week.

 

We've had 4 losses where we were never even competitive (2 against the horsefeathering pirates), and I'm being generous not including Monday night due to the 2012-2014 throwback fake rally.

[We Got The Whole 9]

They suck enough that they can afford to extend Maples a long leash right now. The K% is outrageous.
