I really need to be less lazy with this.  It’s addictive.

These next couple of weeks could get really ugly. Cubs are 35-8 against teams bottom 20 in offensive war and only a modest 23-19 versus bottom 20 teams in pitching war.

Tigers pitching those slow ballers the final 2 innings last night has the hitters all off tonight 😅😅😅

The next 7 are defining games againts Pit and St Louis . They havent play well in the division and a bad road trip could be the difference in pursuing a 2nd tier rental or another Mike Soroka .

I just saw the Yankees and Dodgers probables for the next homestand. Cubs will be lucky if they win 2 games in both of those series.

Ugh, yeah.  This next couple weeks will be big.  No more easy games for awhile.

Not that the offense wasn’t dog horsefeathers but is it legal to win a game 2-1?

Please trade for pitching sooner rather than later, Jed.

I thought after the first Montero's stuff was really nasty.  I think only Dansby's fly out in the 5th was maybe the only ball hit near the barrel.   But I expected to do better against their bullpen guys and we really didn't and that was disappointing. 

This team with the pitching we have at this time ain't winning any 1-0 or 1-1 get em in extra inning games.  Gotta score more runs.

Yeah , Pirates are no joke man with that pitching . Right now I think the Cubs would shop in the tier below Skubal in the rental category . With that said if they go 2-5 i worst  , they probably shop in the lower tier of rentals .
