Boyd threw a mostly decent rehab game for Iowa today. He was limited to 60ish pitches. I’d guess he gets another day off and we’ve seen the last of Wicks until he’s tossed into a deal to some team that needs innings filled and thinks they can unlock something.

Cubs offense in the dumpster.
Relentless ALS depressing talk.
Brett f.ucking Bielema singing the stretch.

Could this game suck any harder a.ss? 😡
Bielema sings at Wrigley every year. Fitz did it, too. It would be awesome if Kirk did it once.

Maybe and I’m just spitballing here, we could look at our training staff, and the hitting coaches at all levels. I’ve never seen a team go through these slumps. And this is the third year in a row.

I mean the last time Dansby had a hit, Jesus Christ was lecturing in Omaha.

Miracle 9th inning comeback...turning point?

Cubs have a very soft slate in June so could be time for an oppo "June swoon"?

I turned it off and watched the hockey game instead. Sounds like I missed quite the comeback!

Definitely got a gift on the Moises hit and the fact that Dansby actually squared up a ball pretty well. I'm not sure PCA could have dropped that hit in a better place. Take it any way we can right now.

They should just keep the camera on T-Mac during games until the Cubs do something interesting.

I really hope and pray this team doesn't buy at the deadline. They're going nowhere as currently constructed and there is not enough to offer anyone to put this team over the top.

Also ask yourself this...... when was the last time you said to yourself "thank god we have Counsell as manager"

Organization needs a total overhaul before next year. It won't be from the FO or Counsel

Today was awful, but they've had some good moments this year, too. It remains early in the season. EC sucked today. I always cringe when they bring back a pitcher without a rehab appearance. He needed one. Boyd is coming back next.
You aren't as bad as you seem, or as good as you seem at times. I will give you that what is happening with Swanson is very concerning, Happ's inability to hit right handed should signal some form of platoon system in the future, and several other guys... The offense has been putrid.
