  1. It’s mind blowing that he has a 370 OBP 85 games in. Thinking he’d ever be this high at any point of his career this many games in seemed optimistic, let alone this year back in early April.
  2. CC is streaky. He was great in April, sucked in May and early June and is back to being a manager of the year candidate. We need more consistency.
  3. Even while PCA has leveled off, he’s been on base 8/19 PAs with 2 stolen bases since Friday. His floor as a hitter is so much higher if this sticks.
  4. Cubs dead last in pitching war in June and only 14th in ERA. Miller’s allowed 6/16 hits this season against the Cubs in 2.1/34.2 innings.
  5. Bregman will have a game with 3 bloop hits on labor Day weekend with 3 RBIs like Heyward in 2016 and that’ll be his signature Cub game.
  6. You can sign Justin Turner for $170 million less to do that.
  7. Please move Bregman to the bottom of the order. He’s incapable of getting a big hit and his stats don’t merit him batting 2 either.
  8. PCA laying off these borderline pitches is one of the biggest year to year transformations I’ve ever seen.
  9. Dansby is as dependable as ever in these contact situations.
  10. It’s amazing that there hasn’t been a home run hit yet with the pitching matchup and wind conditions.
  11. They have 25 hits since Thursday and have scored only 1 run off of a scrub. It’s not dire but they’ve cooled off.
  12. Only our $513 million infielders are having poor seasons offensively.
  13. The league has figured him out, Wrigley was a fly ball vacuum in 2024 and relying on only 2 pitches to get righties out isn’t ideal either.
  14. The offense had been dogshit since Thursday outside of the 6th inning on Saturday
  15. It’s not just all star brewers starting pitchers anymore.
  16. Not to mention they had a day off on Thursday at home while the Cubs had to play 4 games in 3 days before flying into Milwaukee at 2 AM on Friday. It didn’t just fatigue the pitching staff but the position players too.
  17. It rarely seems to play out how it was drawn up in the offseason. Braiser, Hodge and Pressley were replaced by Palencia, Keller, Pomeranz and Theilbar last year and outside of Webb, Palencia, Milner and Theilbar, it’s more musical chairs. Rollison, Thornton even a couple weeks of Riley Martin have become the latest darts that have stuck. Albeit, there’s a ton of margin for error as long as you can minimize home runs behind that defense.
  18. 46-38 is beyond fine when you account for Palecias 2 IL stints, Boyd missing 2 months and Horton only throwing 8 total innings, and those are only the key injuries. What will the future hold without Brown, Cabrera and the Iowa cubs bullpen is anyone’s guess.
  19. Brewers are in a bit of a rut offensively so this series was perfectly timed with the pitching staff in shambles.
