This ****** bullpen, its like a recurring nightmare every single night. Just get rid of all these losers.
Yep. Good teams create good breaks. Bad teams.....well....we are seeing what happens. It's awful.
Fire everyone. Jed. Crane. The bat boy. The hot dog guy. The mascot. They all must go.
there has to be something done when the call is that bad. need to be able to challenge that like the minors can. but can't make silly mistake with fundamentals like catcher interference.
The culture is broken. Not just off....broken to the point it cannot be fixed with the current leadership.
Lol, Whiffdom pops up to the exact same spot at first base twice in a row. Giants weren't in the mood for free outs this time.
Any manager who bats Wisdom and Morel 1-2 in the lineup should be fired on sight. Both bat below .200 and have an OBP less than .300
Morel has batted .160 the last month, and you bat him 2nd? Any other club would bat him 8th or 9th. Dude should be playing in Des Moines, not Chicago.

Really hoping if Tauchman is out for any extended time that this basically forces the Cubs hand to give PCA the full time CF spot. I know he hasn’t been great at the plate but he’s also basically just been a platoon player so far. Nothing to lose now, might as well see what he can do with consistent at bats
Wisdom was only batting there tonight cause Tauchman left the game after tweaking something running to first
Poor man's Javy Baez, his plate discipline has to be the worst in the majors this year.
Another thing I think worth questioning is our pitching development. How we seem to make high level starters on the farm but have zero ability to find a guy who can get 3 outs 3 times a week is astounding
Said that in April, actually said flawed but the board or a select few were all over me. But we're 8 games above .500 blah blah blah.
CCs comments on Neris and the bullpen in general make me wonder if he's just drawing a paycheck. When referred to about closing issues he goes to his stand-by 27 outs. They're 16/31 in save opportunities. Obviously some outs are more important than others. Because we have guys that can get the other 24.
