Do yourselves a favor and start betting against the Cubs. It's been a profitable few weeks for me.

You give Ross through this year but if we can't scratch out a wild card spot (or win this trash division) he better start next year on the thinnest of thin ice.
This team is a trainwreck right now. Luckily the Central is terrible and we still have 4 months left to figure it out.
They're going to win 1 out of every 3 so unless you're getting better then -150 you're going to end up on the losing end.
On the bright side, our cornerstones in Swanson, Happ, and Hoerner have proven their worth; I’d like to see more from Suzuki but it’s entirely possible his start is related to missing Spring Training.
Additionally, this will likely lead to us having to trade Bellinger which would get us off the hook for the $5 million and likely would net a decent player that hopefully would be ready next year.

Don’t feel Ross deserves all the blame, as this team has no depth, but I’m starting to think Rossy may not make it much longer. Pretty tough in this market to lose 14 of 19, especially in the fashion of which they’re doing so in which they’re either getting **** slapped or the bullpen ***** the bed
Keegan Thompson comes in and gives up 2 runs, followed by a walk, without recording an out. Nice outing.
Their decision to not invest in a closer this year is significantly backfiring. The “cobble the pen together with a bunch of marginal dudes” strategy is risky. It’s paid off for a few years, but this year far from it.
The false hope they gave fans in April was such a tease... Expectations in March were to be competent this year before they start the winning window (spending) in 2024.
The division is there to take, but I pray Jed and ownership don't sell the farm and try to win this year..
