  1. The Cubs have to have like a 5% success rate scoring runs when they get the first 2 hitters on in an inning during this losing streak.
  2. Good news is JaMo starts tomorrow and Skenes pitches on Thursday for the Pirates
  3. PCA was 0-4 today but 3 of his hits had xBAs of .870, .660 and .610
  4. Can you imagine how much worse this would be if they didn’t have those 3 walkoff wins against the reds?
  5. I just don’t think they are eating 2 years and $16m on a managers contract. They’ll fire coaches before they fire the manager.
  6. Weirdest season ever. I think at our best we were 7 games clear of a playoff spot. Now we can be out of the playoffs with a Diamondbacks win tonight still 12-13 in our last 25 games!
  7. Really feels like the offense has no chance at scoring today edit: 2 pitches later Busch homers
  8. Swanson with RSIP 2025: .204/.272/.362/.634 2026: .170/.288/.298/.586 Swanson in high leverage situations: 2025: .206/.267/.318/.584 2026: .118/.220/.324/.543
  9. Update on my kid's roller coaster of emotions in his first season following baseball: he think's its a night game today and I haven't corrected him yet because I know he'll waste this beautiful day getting upset about baseball if he knows. I know the old timers who have posted with me for 20 years think this is karma for me lol
  10. xBA on the Busch lineout: .710 xBA on Ramirez’s 8th inning GIDP: .500 Baseball sucks sometimes
  11. PCA doesn’t challenge a clear ball on 3-0 in the 9th inning down 3. I know they only have one left but at this point you aren’t going to have many more chances to challenge calls
  12. Yep. If those are blooped to fielders for outs that’s 5 runs off the board.
  13. Another RBI bloop hit with 2 outs. The Cubs luck is BRUTAL lately in addition to playing poorly.
  14. Of course GIDP with the tying run on. Ramirez is now a Cub
  15. Maybe but it won’t be Counsell. They’re still technically in a playoff spot right now which I realize is like the pig flying through the air in the Simpsons with Homer saying “it’s still good it’s still good” but they won’t fire him. Won’t be Hottovy either. Maybe the hitting coach.
  16. It’s kind of wild how jarring it is to go from getting used to experiencing a Cubs win almost every day for close to a month to immediately experiencing a Cubs loss almost every day for 2.5 weeks.
  17. The Cubs have hit 2 HRs during this 6 game homestead, and just 1 in the past 5 games.
  18. I stressed caution for much of this streak. And obviously they are going to play better, but this feels like something worse than just a slump.
  19. I mean if everyone is healthy he’s probably our 5th starter after Horton, Steele, Cabrera and Boyd. But they’re all on the IL
  20. 0-6 homestand and 8 straight losses in Chicago yikes
  21. The Cubs haven’t had a lead since the White Sox hit their walk off HR last Sunday. In those 5 games, the Cubs have only finished an inning tied in 4 innings
  22. Can Joe Maddon be invited to the game tomorrow and bring along a petting zoo?
  23. Still 12-11 in our last 23 and 22-14 in our last 38!
