This team couldn't be slumping at the worst possible time. Ah well. As they say in Cubs land, "always next year".

Most of us were expecting 81 wins. They have been playing better than expected. We need to look at it for what it is. This is a team that had a top 5 pick for years and now all of a sudden have us talking about adding for a play off run or just falling out of the 2nd play off spot. With a bunch of Rookies... come on now. Enjoy the ride as it is far better than what has been.

Why do you only do negative #calledits? That doesn't help anyone.

I'll do positive ones when the Cubs start winning more games.

Schwarber makes his first start in LF. Castro and Soler sit.

Yep kind of ugly. Also if a deal is made it could be a short bench.

Yeah, I don't put any stock in that either way. Could be true, could not be true.

When it was suggested Bryant get a day off, someone resd that to say he should lose his position. (Reading comprehension is lacking)
Now Soler gets a rest as he is swinging a hotter bat. Oh well.

I'm confused with sitting Soler. He's been swinging the bat well lately

That because Lester has to have his Caddie behind the plate over Schwarber. .
With RH on mound Maddon going with the extra lefties with Cogs and using schwarber in LF..

Fowler has been hitting the ball very well post All-Star break
