  • #justinsteele surely wasn’t the #chicagocubs problem is yet, another low scoring loss to the #brewers. #kap calls it a ‘flat out embarrassment’ as the offense continues to struggle and #jedhoyer and the front office twiddle their thumbs. They scored just 9 runs in a 6 game homestand in what’s become a very frustrating stretch that’s seen the pitching toss a 2.17 ERA the last 17 games, which is best in #mlb
    Kap says enough is enough. While other teams have shown accountability like the #rangers and #padres, the Cubs have dug a hole so deep, it appears they’ll just be playing out the string if this continues.

    And it's not like we haven't been patient with Jed since he took over. We was promised wild card or playoffs this season. I feel Brewers lost much more in the offseason and still became better than the Cubs. In cases, as a GM you take blame in for this mess. David Ross never got any excuses and was canned. Jed Hoyer definitely deserves some blame for this mess of a team. And when you see his interviews and seeing he still in denial about this team, HE HAS TO GO. ITS NOT WORKING!

      Craig Counsell is an awful manager. He underperformed for the Brewers every season he was there. They would have won the World Series if Counsell hadn’t so badly mismanaged the bullpen in games 6&7 in the 2019 NLCS against the Dodgers. The Brewers had an anaemic offense every year since 2020 and regular bullpen meltdowns. Sound familiar? The Cubs were swindled into taking a below average manager that the Brewers wanted to get rid of but couldn’t admit it because it would have been a pr nightmare. They didn’t want to keep him for what he had been making, then the Cubs as a division rival overbid and they cry small market. Now Brewers ownership is the victim to their fans, Counsell is at a rival screwing up their team and Brewers fans will keep the hate going for years. Another awful decision by the Cubs.

Just compare the Cubs and Cardinals offense. Idk I guess people will be shocked, but they're not any better, even with runners in scoring position. But they're in playoff position, have someone to hold their 9th inning leads... that's kinda important, hope the Cubs will have learned by this next offseason. Could've got Hader this season, but again, someone to save games wasn't necessary enough for them... why? I have no fking clue.

    Why does the offense have to take most of the blame? "You're not the Bronx Bombers? You stink!"
    If people could check stats and compare teams, you'd see the Cardinals and Pirates are just as bad offensively, across the board, even RISP. But the Cardinals are in playoff position...how? Their rotation isn't any better than the Cubs is it? Cubs have a pretty good one... oh I bet they probably have a better 9th inning guy, someone to hold leads and win games like he's supposed to no matter what lead he has... yep, sure enough, they have a pretty good one. That explains why they're in playoff position and not the Cubs. But I get it, adding another late game arm is too much work for a big market, just surrender and give up.
    I wonder if one was available even before the season started, when they already knew we needed a closer... Josh Hader maybe? Bet he's probably something like 20/21 in save chances right? He wasn't important to sign tho...

      Don't even get me started on the people blaming the manager like it's his job to find more talent...all he can do is use what's given to him. If he's so awful and uninspiring, why did Milwaukee win the division every year? They also had bad offenses too... but you think their great pitching they supplied for him, late game in particular like Hader and Williams, had anything to do with? Cubs are a fking awful 9th inning team this season and that's the #1 reason for no playoffs. 5th lowest save % including to teams just ahead in the standings... you win when you're supposed to (leading in the 9th) and this is a playoff team

      Not only wasn’t he the difference, he was actually the reason the Brewers underperformed every year under him. They should have had 2 years in the World Series like the Royals, but Counsell overcoached the hitters into an anemic offense and had multiple bullpen meltdowns in key situations. Sound familiar? The Brewers front office after Stern left didn’t want to keep him, but needed a PR situation to keep from looking like the bad guy. The Cubs gave it to them by overpaying. The Cubs are suckers again.

    This failed season is 100% on Hoyer , there's no excuse for this horseshit team . Everybody knows he didn't do anything to improve this team from last year and that's inexcusable for the 3rd largest market in the country and hiring Counsell was the stupidest move he's made so far especially the way he screwed David Ross, and don't think it didn't affect the players . He keeps wanting to shove his prospects down our throats . How many years for that bullshit ? I'm so sick and tired of watching Crow-Armstrong strike out and still he's up here . Why ? Why is Morel still up here in the lineup every day ? And Mastrobuoni ? What a talentless offensive team this is , this whole organization is pathetic , top to bottom !

  • @bobkendler7149

    KAP: Morel has no future whatsoever in MLB. He’s a .199 batter on his best and luckiest day. His fielding abilities are non-existent. Don’t believe me? Play the tapes from last season when Ross had him in the OF running around like a crazy person. And he’s a DH occasionally? Are you serious, Craig. Third base is just a limbo position on the Cubs right now with two minor leaguers platooning there. Finally, Morel has no arm strength at all.

      It should. The Cubs got absolutely fleeced. The Brewers organization didn’t want to pay him what he was making, let alone give him a raise, but they knew their simple fan base would rebel because he was a hometown guy that looked like a good manager, but underperformed every year. The Brewers have had the best small market front office for many years and expected what the Royals got-a World Series, but Counsell blew that in 2019 when it should have been in the bag and then never got close again. The Cubs stepped in and paid him, the Brewers cry small market and are sympathetic to their simple fans, and Counsell is now the villain helping a division rival underpreform.

He can run....I'll give them that. I watched him try to hit a major league fastball at spring training. He looked like a HS kid trying to catch up. He was waaaay overmatched. I said then and I'll say now....he cannot hit major league level pitching. So Chicago press....what's with the infatuation ??

William Contreras’ celebration at the end was the cherry on top.
    19th blown save and 21st one run loss. I’m mad more at myself for ever believing this dumpster fire organization was ever serious about winning after 2016.
