Cubs (Boyd) vs Rockies (Gordon): 8/31/25, 2:10pm

[Cubbies1996]

What a garbage performance against a terrible pitcher. Unserious team

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Career high in K’s previous high was 6.. in a game where he gave up 10 ERs vs Arizona 

[Cubbies1996]

Just keep the bat on your shoulders boys

[Irrelevant Dude]

Just keep watching 3rd strike boys.

[Derwood]

Seiya taking pitches right down the middle again

I really picked the right number here huh.

[Soul]

Pathetic.  There is no pitcher who can’t shut down the Cubs on a day like today.

[BigSlick]

NINE strike outs? against this shlub? inexcusable 

[Geographyhater8888]

Another nail biter against a horsefeathers team. Unless of course Colorado extends their lead, then it’s a blowout loss vs a team losing by a 2.7 rpg average.

[Cubbies1996]

Another chance to gain a game on the Brewers and they’re gonna piss it down their leg

[BobbyD3]

At least we snagged super-utility bat Willie Castro at the trade deadline.  What a great get that was  (sarcasm noted).    

[WhyCantWeWin]

This guy has a career era above 7 right? Tough assignment, cant blame the bats i guess

He can ruin production from any position.

[DYMNO]

This offense is an absolute dumpster fire.

This place is joyless

Castro shouldn't start another game until the end of the season, he's been useless. 

[Cubbies1996]

Just a disappointing road trip. Should’ve made up at least 2 games in the standings. But, as always with this team, choked the chance away

[Soul]

I know we beat these guys 2/3 in their building (barring an uncharacteristic Sunday comeback) but it feels like it was a struggle and keep in mind this opponent is running 300+ in the red run diff.

[profisme]

 Best effort of the day was Reese trying to hit the ump with his bat on that last swing. 

[BigSlick]

its obviously a lot to expect any team to sweep a major league baseball team - thats just not something you can demand of even the best team against the worst team. 

but boy it would have been nice

[chibears55]

They look like theyre ready to leave and go home, just another weak showing on a Sunday.

They’re painfully mediocre.

So much negativity in here - I can’t believe what I’m hearing. I see you guys don’t get the trolls in here like I do (those positive Peters and all). 
 

Teams go through slumps and struggles, but this team is beyond struggling. There is something clearly “off” and there is absolutely nothing wrong with voicing your discontent with your team when they’re playing like straight cheeks. One thing about being positive and another thing to bury your head in the sand and act like this inconsistent play is “something all teams go through.” No - a slump you get out of…this is much more than that. Hoping they can turn it around and get right, but like many of you loyal fans, you see there is something wrong too.
