They’ve had 11 consecutive 3 game series with at least one game of 3 or less runs and 9/11 with 2>. Only 1 win and that was the home opener vs the Padres.
-
Unfortunately the Cubs basically turn into the Whitesox on Sundays and the Cubs bats so far have remembered what day it is.
-
I know Tucker is in a slump and he’ll break out of it eventually but that $600 million figure floating around is ridiculous. No one his paying him that.
-
Japan, Korea, it’s bad when there’s guys playing in Africa who you could argue would be a better option at third base then anyone on the Cubs ML roster.
-
Can we trade Lopez to Japan for Wisdom?
-
Is that 20 base runners now? Only 6 runs. So frustrating.
-
He plays a bit of 1st base too. Obviously the concern is where you’d put Bush and or put Suzuki in left DH Ballesteros move Hoerner and Dansby over and put Happ at 2B where he has experience which will be a net negative defensively, The net positive from the offense without Berti and Turner will more than compensate ideally. Plus, you have an awful bench and a guy ranking in Iowa, you want to find a way to use it to your advantage.

Zero homeruns. 2 doubles and a 516 OPS on almost 200 ABs, -.8 WAR. I take issue with Turner still being on the ML roster because a 40 YO, soon to retire DH hitting below the Mendoza line is our best option? inexcusable to go into year 3 with a black hole at the hot corner. I just hope they keep Busch in the lineup vs lefties for now on. He’s your everyday 1st baseman and it’s time team him like one. It’s not like he’ll do any worse than Turner, he’ll be better even vs lefties.
-
You’re putting Nico at shortstop. You have a guy raking in Iowa, try to find a spot for him with below replacement level production from the hot corner. At worst the net benefit is neutral. it was a question not a statement.
-
Do you bring Ballesteros up and put Busch and 2B or 3B? This team needs to score runs to win and I’m sick of seeing these automatic outs like Berti and Turner in the everyday lineup.
-
W This is also the worst bench I can remember. Busch Suzuki and Kelly were going to regress from their 900 OPS+ pace, not a surprise the scoring is down ever since Carson Kelly remembered he’s Carson Kelly and not babe Ruth. third base, rotation and pen are trending as expected. 88 wins it is, although it’s still the cubs we’re talking about l.
-
Tucker is playing himself into affordability at least.
-
4 runs over the Last 33.5 innings on Sundays. 0-3 despite the pitching staff only allowing 10 total runs. this is ridiculous.
-
How many times have the first 6 batters struck out in a game?
-
Cubs are getting-.7 WAR out of third base. Didn’t think it was possible to downgrade from Morel/Wisdom/Madrigal but here we are.
-
What’s his hard hit rate? I guess I’m going off last year when I had more time to watch games. Cubs don’t have any pen arms with nasty off speed stuff so throwing 100 mph with location is the next best thing.
-
Palencia has the Stuff that misses bats that our pen has lacked since??? It’s the bench that’s worrisome. Berti Turner brujan Lopez and formerly Workman with a -.7 WAR, 226 slugging% and a combined 525 OPS. They need to boost their depth before the position players are worn out playing every day out of necessity
-
Ask Dodger fans about PCA and Busch while you’re at it.
-
Is Cade Horton a myth?
-
Bullpen typically is good for a nice 3-4 game stretch only to implode all in one inning at any given moment. At least they chose a good day like Sunday when the offense is useless and it’s moot.
-
Offense doesn’t show up on Sundays.
-
He needs more than 2 pitches.
-
Brown needs more than 2 pitches to become an effective starting pitcher.
-
I know this. It’s a unique situation and nothing more. I’m waiting for him to remember he’s Carson Kelly and not babe Ruth.
-
I’m not complaining. I’m pointing out an incredibly unique situation.
