What a suckass game by hitters to end home stand

It's like the league has figured out the Cubs offense. Cubs were hitting everything in site the first couple of months of the season and the last several weeks have not been hitting all that good. Adjustments need to be made or something here.

Maddon seems to like Schwarber in the 2 hole.
He did say he wanted the 2 lefties sandwiching Bryant. Heyward was going to be the 2 hitter. May still if this is the only funk he goes through as a Cub

I think we need to continue to figure out who needs to be in what hole until everyone is happy.

Today is on Silence for the Lackey jinx.

I suggested my adjustment

Top guys are getting on base, inconsistencies with bottom guys driving them in for most part

I believe the only way everyone here will be happy is if they win the World Series. Until then we'll all be left with our own theories, chicken little popping up every other day, and of course Ommy's take on it all.

Miss used. Side arm RHP are seen very well by lefties. Yelch is a .300 hitter and had the advantage.

If you sign a side arm guy you pitch him to righties and throw all breaking stuff down in the zone.

It is pointless to trade for a sidewinder if you don't use him in the right sceneries.

6 hitter with a weak grounder

As I said, top guys get on base Noone able to drive them in

Ahh yes, so explain how Bryant batting third would have changed that inning? Contreras or Heyward would be batting second and one struck out and the other would have hit into a double play? The Cubs didnt come through. Its a team effort. You talk in conjecture.

The whole game different with the lineup change not just an inning for one..

Two..

My point remains the same

You had non RBI guys coming up as their 4 5 6 hitters in a big situation and didn't come through..
Maddon made the 4 hitter bunt


You want Bryant in 2 hole cause he gets on base, but there Noone driving him in but Rizzo for most part..

First and second with Bryant Rizzo n Zobrist coming up, you got a better chance at getting both runners home
Over having Bryant and Rizzo on base with Zobrist Contreras and Heyward coming up

That my point for every game
