Busch only has 3 home runs too. Both need to start hitting like the middle of the order bats we’re counting on for consistent run production.
-
It was only a solo Shot though. I still think they should they should DFA Happ.
-
Holy horsefeathers they have a lead. It’s a miracle.
-
Looks like more of the same horsefeathers tonight.

He has a career 791 OPS. At this stage of his career it’s unlikely he’d sustain his 900+ OPS all the way through September without steroids and hasn’t. His strikeouts are up and his rate stats are up too. That’s means he’s been better on a per PA basis. It’s like saying a quarterback who has the highest passer rating of his career isn’t worth extending because his completion percentage is lower than his career average. You’re focusing on all the wrong things. I lean Suzuki as well but in no way does it have anything to do with his increase in walks and home runs, which has contributed to better efficiency as a hitter based on his rate stats.
-
Your premise for why they shouldn’t resign him is his 225 average over his last 55 at bats. We have a 5+ year sample size as an everyday position player from Happ, plus his excellent start to the season and you choose his last 55 at bats as the reason to discard him? If you’d rather keep Suzuki that’s fine but not for any of those reasons.

People would rather focus on him striking out with bases loaded than being driven in the fourth from second base on a leadoff double in a 5-4 win. Both contribute to wins. He scores runs. And truncating a specific 2 week cherry picked sample size to prove he sucks with a 6+ year track record of solid production is even more absurd. We’re not talking about PCA or Busch who may or may not have had outlier seasons in 2025. If the Cubs had a prime Mike trout batting second Im sure he’d fly under the radar more but because he’s one of our best hitters people have these unrealistic expectations of him. I think anyways. I personally would rather keep Suzuki unless both agree to short term deals but his future is beside the point.

He has a 368 OBP and leads the team in runs scored with 32. Who do you think is scoring on those clutch base hits from Suzuki and Busch? Happ. The team has 12 hits since Saturday and Mo, Bregman, Nico and Swanson have been in an even bigger rut. Why is the focus on Happ specifically? He strikes out a lot, he’s streaky and seems to strikeout a lot in key situations. For a high 700’s OPS and GG defense in left field he’s paid accordingly. If he was being paid $200 million over 8 years then the amount of criticism he gets would make sense. they’re not scoring.6 runs/game fewer than at the 43 game mark last season because of Happ, it’s because PCA and Busch’s wRC+ have dipped from 134 and 133 to 93 and 108.

Whoops. Typos are aggravating.
-
Incredibly aggravating. Are the Brewers in first place yet?
-
Signature Matton meatball right down the middle. horsefeathers this horsefeathers.
-
This has been a really rapid descent from a where they were at last Friday.
-
horsefeathers brutal. When is Bregman going to heat up?
-
Non stop sliders and they can’t do horsefeathers. This is 2018 bad.
-
This is getting annoying.
-
Mo is now 2 for his last 39.
-
The problem is they’re playing well and their fans are insufferable douche bags. It might be irrational to to be more invested in a 3 game series on the southside than any other inter league opponent, but nothing about being a sports fan is rational.
-
The issue here is the pitching staff can’t pick up a slumping offense. 11 of their last 21 wins the opponents have scored at least 4 runs i expect the bats to wake up again but I don’t see any improvement from the pitching staff until they regain health and or trade for a top of rotation starting pitcher now that the cupcakes are off the schedule. It would be nice if Busch can pick up his 15 home run pace.
-
Only 1 hit. Another snooze fest.
-
7 runs in 2.5 games would be lame. They have 7 horsefeathers hits.
-
I’ll be thrilled if they split the next 6.
-
Yeah, he credits adding a cutter to his pitch mix for his turnaround.
-
If it was a one run game I’d be asking why Bregman isn’t up to face the lefty but it doesn’t matter at this point.
-
What a ****** weekend. At least lose by a respectable 4-3 score.
-
Good news, no Bryce Elder this week.
