Cubs (Brown) vs Reds (Abbott): 6/8/24, 3:10pm

Who couldn't see that coming from a thousand miles away?  They could have 10 outs and still wouldn't be able to score the runner from third.  By the way, these Reds are not very good, the Cubs are worse.

Imagine if Jed knew how to put together a team with $225 million. 

Who is next in line to run the Cubs? And do we have the patience for another 5 year plan?

I had moderate expectations but I really did not expect to be checked out in early june

Patience? We're in a perpetual 5 year plan whether you like it or not.

Same here. I figured at the very least they’d be watchable for the year. Haven’t watched a game in over 2 weeks now.

The only thing I know for sure is I don't have the patience for another Jed plan.

I've been assured everything is fine and saying otherwise is overreacting

The 2 teams from mighty big market Chicago are collectively looking up at 8 small market teams in their respective divisions. Unreal

C'mon. It's only been 4 years since we got rid of that horsefeathers Darvish in order to stockpile this comedy

The Bears will be much more entertaining than this boring pile of dog-horsefeathers Cubs team.  There's actual real talent on the Bears, guys who can play football.

I have the patience for good baseball. 2016 was 8 years ago. If you can guarantee me a good team, with someone new in charge, I will wait. None of this dithering for years and years playing average to bad baseball because that is what Jed provides.

It's a long 55+ days till then, hell, I'm even going to a game during the series with Milwaukee in July.  I'm going to enjoy the experience regardless of the product on the field.

Just wondering.. if nico has a broken hand why isn't he on the IL? Does Jed prefer the 25 man roster over the 26 man?

Well Seiya is on the shelf too but not on the IL, so 24 man roster!

Technically when Derwood said that they were in last place as the Cardinals had not lost yet.

They'd only bring up a kid that won't play, so kinda the same thing 🤷‍♂️

Awful awful

Keep riding that L train, Cubs.

When you don’t sign stars and can’t develop stars, this is what you get

[Stratos]

Every game is the Cubs not hitting any SP and then deciding to rally in the 8th or 9th inning.
