I’m starting to think the Cubs offense is just bad and not in an extended slump. 

They do look particularly bad tonight.  They got 2 hits off an 8 ERA pitcher.  Pretty pathetic.

Conforto dead... 3 for last 37

He sucks, especially when he starts.

Cant remember ever seeing a lineup of usually good hitters just look terrible overall for so long together

Someone needs to dig into the numbers and see if even the worse cubs offenses ever had a month long stretch of putridness like this. 2011-2013 was pretty bleak but I don't remember something like this

Here is the Cubs last 27 games and a 30 game stretch in 2024 so there is some precedent.

I know everyone but PCA sucks right now but maybe, just maybe, try literally anyone else at cleanup other than Bregman.

don't know even why he's wasting time throwing breaking balls. any decent velocity fastball in the zone he's gonna hit a lazy pop up or fly ball

Or, strikeout.  He's been pathetic.

Well, Pressly was just like Maton.  Maybe, Maton is slightly worse. 

Pressly had a streak where he only gave up earned runs in 2 of 34 appearances. He fell apart at the end, but Maton hasn’t had anything like that.

If baseball games were 26 outs long, the Cubs would be 2 outs away from their 9th consecutive loss and be 5-24 over their last 29 games.
