Time to fire some hitting coaches. This team is awful at the plate. And I'm being kind.

 

I know, let's get the most expensive hitting coach in mlb. That same philosophy worked out well for the managerial change

This team sucks and they hate us, the viewer

One would think that pitch recognition (particularly pitches right down the middle) would be a prerequisite for making it to the majors

The Cubs are, currently, in the eighth spot in the 2025 draft lottery with a 2.56% chance to win the number one overall pick.

Now Joe Maddon's Tee shirt idea makes sense.

it's funny watching Brett from BN absolutely refuse to criticize the cubs front office or ownership

Does anyone actually read his takes?  I use BN for the news and skip all of his opinions.

Busch has a 24.5% K% in June, and a 166 wRC+.  Only 1 HR and .156 ISO though.

If it makes anyone feel any better the Diaz ejection won me my Save/Hold category in fantasy.

10 game suspension is the standard for sticky stuff.
