It's kind of crazy how wildly different Wrigley plays from year to year. I was going to say that this is the 2nd year in a row Wrigley has been death to hitters but the Park Factors says they are pretty much middle of the road this year (99 Park Factor). Here is how we've fared in recent years: 2025: 15th (99) 2024: 29th (91) 2023: 9th (101) 2022: 16th (99) 2021: 7th (103) 2020: 24th (96) 2019: 15th (99) 2018: 11th (102) 2017: 8th (103) 2016: 26th (94) 2015: 13th (100) -
Strange to say when we hit a bit better in April (.811 OPS) overall against tougher pitching than we did in May (.772 OPS) when the schedule got a lot lighter. Right now all you can call this is ebbs and flows of a baseball season. If they are still hitting like this into July then you can be concerned.

Not including today, the Cubs offense has a .229/.292/.382/.674 line over their last 16 games, averaging 3.4 rpg over the span. Hopefully they get it going at some point in this long homestead.
-
For anyone hoping the conditions wake up the Cubs offense, the wind is projected to blow in Saturday and Sunday, though its starting to blow out next week.
-
Only scoring 1 runs in 5 innings against the Pirates pen is pretty disappointing even we weren't expecting to do much against Skenes. Offense is definitely in a bit of a rut right now and its frustrating.
-
Kyle Tucker has never faced Bednar before. Seiya is 5-13 with 2 XBH against him.
-
Unproductive out for Happ
-
Happ has a career 1.083 OPS against Bednar in his career
-
Which other poster? I think its pretty universally hated here lol
-
Top of the order up, someone get a hit.
-
If he induces a DP here he'll still have a 0.00 ERA!
-
Did not want a hit where the runner also advanced to 3rd ugh
-
Bases loaded 0 outs, lovely
-
I hate fake baseball
-
Please walk it off and don't play fake baseball
-
I can't believe they called him safe. That was one of the most obvious out calls I've ever seen called safe.
-
Not a great start
-
he did it!
-
Terrible strike 1 call come on.
-
If Dansby doesn't GIDP but fails to get the run in at least you have Busch matched up against a righty now.
-
I don't think it will be a GIDP this time, it will be a strikeout swinging at a breaking pitch out of the zone.
-
Dansby with another GIDP opportunity. I mean RISP opportunity.
-
This catcher has a 22% CS%. Definitely surprised they aren't trying to steal here. Wonder if PCA will try to drop one down for a hit here against the lefty.
-
Ahhh Seiya I know he's been wild but that was a cookie.
-
He fielded it running towards the base path and directly in front of the runner. Obviously the IF was in for a reason to get him at home but once that ball was hit it should have been thrown to 1st IMO.
