When I point out something along the lines of how the Cubs have Baez-Rizzo-Bryant-Contreras and then a whole bunch of trash heaps, there's usually a reply along the lines of, "oh, how terrible they ONLY have four really good hitters," like it's ridiculous to expect the Cubs to have a better lineup. But look at how they play these guys; it's because they know if a couple, or even just one of these guys are out of the lineup, they're screwed. And look at other teams like the Astros and the Yankees have been riddled with injuries up and down, including to key players, yet they're able to take that weight because of how much significantly better their teams are constructed than the Cubs'. Basically this whole "keep playing guys even though they're clearly hurt" thing is dumb and a bad, bad sign.
