June 17: Cubs lead Brewers by 6.5 games.
August 8: Cubs trail Brewers by 5 games.
Cubs are a clown show
Every single year
Collapse every single time
Worst organization in the league
Cubs are dead on arrival, no heartbeat, no brain function, no soul. Pathetic excuse for a professional baseball team.
Managed to give some nobody pitcher his 4 th win of the YEAR. No heart, no fire, no balls.
See how a simple changes can change everything? Yadi needs to manage this club
Cubs are terrible
The Cubs are going backward in the second half. I don't think they will make the playoffs the way they are playing
I don't think the cubs are a threat to the Brewers anymore.😂
Cubs are losing the handle. Brewers are going to run away with the division at this point.
The central division has left the building….go brewers…do it for Uecker!
Soooo. It seems to be a trend. Once again, Hoyer and Ricketts go into all star break trying to jury rig a team together for a playoff run and come out with rumors swirling about your best players and adding players that can’t be counted on. Within a week, the team is floating in the doldrums on their way to sitting on the sidelines ….again. The Ricketts family love making money more than winning baseball. That is essentially the problem. That is why Hoyer got the extension before the break. He knew the fans would call for his head.
