That mindset is their problem. They just need to take some walks, put the ball in play, and maybe bunt a guy or two over. This "1 big swing" mindset is why they're swinging at shit.

It'll happen. I've been calling for bunts all series. Doubt they are coming.

It's almost donevery already

Bauer was a meatballer who shouldn't last 12-15 outs

We have 1 groundball single
He has 9 outs and 5 or 6 k'so

We need a leadoff Hitter to reach...in the 4th.

Francona will have the pen ready in the 5th

Cubs just need 1 big swing. They are due.

They've been due the entire post season. And some point we have to live with reality. The team as whole just hasn't hit all post season. A flash here and there but team wide garbage for the most part

You joined in 2015 and today is your first post....did it take you a year to come up with those words of wisdom?
I love the Cubs but have to call the beloved out right now. When we are hot we're incredible... It's the double edge of our good-not-great/quantity pitching and young hitters. Agonizing, I just want to see these Cubs get to Cleveland.

The Zobrunt (NLCS gm 4)basically kickstarted this team into the WS. Shocked they haven't tried it again.

I suppose you could bat Soler for Baez, leave him in left and move Zobrist to second. Last night I said don't bench Baez, but he's just picked up right where he left off. On the other hand, Soler appears to be in Maddon's dog house. Decisions decisions...
