I struggle to find the positives...This team just cant drive in runs, they lead the league by a wide margin in runners stranded on base and in scoring position. They have precisely 3 clutch hitters...PCA, Haap and Conforto and you need more than that to carry an offense. They refuse to play small ball, i csnt remember the last sac bunt...if guys are consistently striking out or popping up with guys on base, at least advanve a runner with the out....id love to see the squeeze bunt come back into play with this team.
Bregman is looking like one of the worst signings of the past decsde...god i hope he turns things around at some point....but right now hes just one gigantic offensive liability.
I think Homer must have been watching the Cubs.

A few positives with some hitters on the team. A few positives from the pitching staff as well. Seems like we can't get both working at the same time though! Injuries happen, but what the Cubs have experienced this year (especially on the pitching end) is excessive! Maybe we'll have a good second half of the season, who knows, but this is a 162 game season, so there's still a lot of ball to play!
a month ago they looked like the best team in the league....since then they have been the worst team in the league.
great defense, but it doesnt matter when your pitching staff (im looking at you starters...tallion is godawful) is giving up dingers like theyre pitching in the home run derby....this staff comfortably leads the league in hrs given up.
offensively theyre getting on base, but the more on base, the worse the hitting becomes....with the bases juiced theyre batting like .190...and with 2 outs, even worse.
in clutch situations Bregman might be the worst hitter in the NL.

Another game last night we should've won. We had plenty of scoring opportunities, leaving the bases loaded then striking out next two batters, running into a double play, attempting to steal (actually I think that one worked). Ugh, this team is the tale of two different teams showing up this year!
Got some good offense again last night. I was watching it muted during my son's Scout meeting, so I missed a lot of the game, but I did see the replay on PCA's slide. He knew right away as he walked off the field that he was safe and he was already high fiving everyone in the clubhouse, lol!
