You would have thought that one of those .190 hitters would have come through. Then they would have only lost 3-1 or maybe 3-2.Zac Gallen's line: 5.0 Innings, 3 Hits, 6 Walks, 0 Runs. This includes 2nd and 3rd with nobody out in 5th and he had over 90 pitches at the time.

According to the schedule, both are Cub home games. They play Dodgers 2 more times at Wrigley and 3 times at LA.are the Cubs & Dodgers each giving up a home game in order the play these two neutral site games
No. It was Suzuki and Happ that struck out for the first 2 outs.You would have thought that one of those .190 hitters would have come through. Then they would have only lost 3-1 or maybe 3-2.
If the season was 20 games maybe I could watch, but I'm not watching this crap 162 times. Life's too short to waste it on garbage.
"I think where we are right now, I would say that moves only for '24 — unless things change over the next week — we probably won't do a lot of moves that only help us for this year," Hoyer said to reporters. "If moves help us in '25 and beyond, I think we're still exceptionally well positioned. I think that's what our focus will be. But just helping in '24, I think that probably won't be our focus unless things change dramatically."
well, they have no reason to be buyers.Hoyer comments yesterday:
Sounds like there's a good chance they will be sellers...and rightfully so.
Sadly I guess, I still watch essentially every inning of every game.No. It was Suzuki and Happ that struck out for the first 2 outs.
IF I watch (which isn't too often) it's in double speed. As soon as they get down by 2 or 3 runs I quit. This team never comes back from a deficit.
You have more patience and time than me. I will try to watch every Bears, and Illini FB & BB.Sadly I guess, I still watch essentially every inning of every game.
-- Prefer watching the Cubbies over any/all other MLB games.
-- Definitely prefer baseball over the Olympics.
-- Admittedly, I will prioritize Bears/Illini football if on simultaneously this fall (and then watch Cubs later that day)
Thinking we just might be in the midst of a 7-game win streak that will change Jed's thought process.........

Let me correct myself. Morel shouldn't be playing. His hitting has been a bigger disappointment than his fielding.View attachment 35867
Cubs' offense continues their first half dominance heading into 2 crucial series at home after the All Star break, hitting on all cylinders with 7 runs in 5 games.
PCA and Morel can't be on a winning team's lineup. (Not saying they shouldn't be playing.....just saying a WINNING team's lineup.)
I would accept them being as good as the Pirates.it really is hard to understand why the Cubs are really so much more like the Mets than the Braves . Geez, I would even accept them just being as good as the Brewers
In any case, if the Cubs are going to be scoring 2 runs a game, they should be doing it with Canario, Caissie, Mervis and Ballesteros in the lineup.
One of these is not like the others.
He's the epitome of a AAAA player.I know how awful Mervis has been in his two short stays in the Majors. Still, he’s slugging over .500 in over 900 plate appearances at AAA and is 26. Either give him another shot or get him out of the system.
depends is his hair blue again ?Just wondering out loud here...is PCA still considered a blue-chip prospect?
I have been in and out depending on recent results. It's become like watching the same movie over and over again...the surprise twist is always that we get a slim lead and lose the game in the late innings.most Cub fans , myself included , were willing to give the Rickets a 5 year honeymoon for winning a WS & making the park & immediate area a truly awesome place for any baseball fan to take in a game .
But since the 2022 season (post covid) , they have been a disaster . it’s time to get real about winning or get out of the game . there is just no excuse .
I can’t watch them anymore and haven’t since mid May when they started losing 2 outta 3 every series
