Absolutely absurd

His batting average is up 25 points over the last week too.

If we can figure out starting pitching, this team seems to be ready for another short term run. Already have won 5 of 6.

Probably worth it since we only gave up Mathis(who honestly didn’t have a future with the organization). Maybe new scenery will be good for Peterson

Needed to do something for sure. Low risk trade, he's only signed for this season so if it doesn't pan out they can move on. Sounds like he is a ground ball pitcher which plays well with our defense too

Dansby has been out of this world during this stretch. However, I'm going to slow roll this because this is exactly who he, Happ and too many others are. They go through these nutty stretches and then are abysmal for longer stretches. I hope with all my fandom he can contribute at the plate but we've been here before in varying degrees.

Today ends what will be 21 straight games of playing teams below .500.

Cubs record going into this last game: 11-9

I think that's a bad sign. Lol

Glad he’s starting to hit but Ramirez is probably the future at SS.

He's played one inning of SS in the last 3 years in the minors.

It'll be Jefferson Rojas assuming they don't trade him. 20 years old and tearing up AA.

Is he a startet

Sounds like Brown is out at least a month plus:

Dude has the longest neck this side of Merton Hanks. Checks out that he's always got trouble with it.

Looks like it before this year where his appearances are 50/50....so????

Read somewhere he is a ground ball pitcher so that would be different.

successful outing for Boyd tonight?
Don’t get injured.

 

[FerShizzle]

Maybe CC shouldn’t pull the pircher mid inning for no real reason?

 

[CycloneT]

Great job managing the bullpen Craig

 

[Cyforce]

How can this guy suck every time out?

 

[ProStateCubs]

Maton is a trash can. cut him

I have said it many times, he is this year's version of Pressly. Dude struggles to throw clean innings in late inning situations and his mistakes usually blow up.
