They may be good enough to win one playoff round, but I’m expecting a quick exit once this season ends.
If this were a full six month season I don’t think they finish higher than 3rd.

The punchless cubs drop 3 of 4 to last place Pirates and now limp in to the south side to try and clinch the division.

Luckily this is the last year with this core. I don’t see Bryant, Schwarber, and Baez being on the team next year.

Almost as farcical as the debate last night is looking at the lineups today for the Marlins and Cubs and the relative potential (or at least we thought) of those lineups and then seeing the predictable happen after two months of watching the Cubs offense pretty much suck - they are well on their way to losing the series to the Marlins.

Time to tear this thing down and start over. Offense is completely broken, just as it has been the last 2-3 years. Unfortunately, I can’t really see who on this team from an offense standpoint has any trade value left.
I’m sure Theo will be skipping town soon to the Muts.

I knew Cubs were done when their runner was out a home by a country mile. Rally killed. Pop gun offence after that. So much for the North South Chicago W.S.

I was fine with the send, no matter how egregious, just cause of how horrendous the offense has been. Have to take advantage of every chance they get.
Then the classic 9th inning lead off double followed by 3 punchless K’s.

I didnt watch much this year but hard to be super upset about winning or losing a 3 game series.
