Damn 102.9mph 28 degree LA off PCAs bad ends up an out

Damn you Taillon

Yeah at this point you have to burn your bullpen to try to stay in the game.

Taillon now has the worst WAR in baseball for any pitcher with more than 35 IP this year.

So he's now allowed 17 ER in 13.1 IP against the Pirates this year

Goodbye Jameson it’s been real

Taillon now at 24 HR allowed this year, 4th worst in baseball. Leader has 27 allowed, next 2 tied with 25 allowed. Taillon has pitched at least 30 less innings than the 3 above him

Holy horsefeathers get this dude out of the rotation

Second most impressive thing: 2026 vs. 2025:

I can't settle on what is the most impressive part of PCA's season. Actually yes I can, it's his .390 (!) OBP, 6th in baseball. Dude had a .285 career OBP in just over 1000 PAs coming into the season. Now it's over 100 points higher! Just a stunning transformation.

Bregman is so incredibly pointless

This is gonna hurt

Dansby Swanson's season: First 70 games: .175/.281/.306/.587, 7 HR, 28 RBI Next 13 games: .365/.393/.981/1.374, 9 HR, 29 RBI 15 games since: .226/.255/.302/.556, 0 HR, 1 RBI

The Cubs have had the 2nd most situations in baseball where they’ve come to the plate with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs, just 4 behind the Brewers for the league lead. They are 28th in baseball in converting those situations into runs at 44.9% of the time. The Brewers have converted 53.5% of the time, leading to 24 additional runs scored. Wonder how different the standings would be if the Cubs were converting at the rate the Brewers are (which is only slightly above league average).
