Let’s also not overlook constantly leaving starters in too long, consistently batting the likes of Kelly and Turner in the top half of the lineup when they’ve been garbage for a month now while Shaw sits in the 8 or 9 hole. Playing Happ almost every single day when he has been one of the worst hitters in the MLB. Yes players make mistakes, but a lot of the Cubs issues fall at the feet of Counsell and he’s done almost nothing to change things up.
