1. Boycott Wrigley Fields now! Da loveable losers forevers cubbies gots massacreds. Dis team gots no heart. Da cubbies b da worsters team in da history of sports. Fo sho m hu. Cubbies moves tos Dalton an b Dalton Duds. Facts. 🤘🃏🎸🥃🍺🤤💩🤮🪦🦛🙉🦨🤘🤪😎🌛👍🇺🇸😂🤣

2. On the bright side, the front office knows early on for certain that pitching is a need come July.

3. Cubs too homerun dependent

4. And to rub it in ex cub Cassie walk off in Miami

5. Who is ever intentionally not ready? The single highest priority a manager should have is ensuring his Team is Ready to play. The Cubs get a C- for the series. Counsell gets an F.

6. Prisoners of the moment…. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE OF YOU!!!! 😂🤣😂

7. Hate in game interviews, especially Jed Hoyer. Wish Boog would just call the game. Talk about the players, and the situation at hand. J.D. is great….does not over talk.

8. Shota costed the game for the cubs today he needs to go he doesn't deserve to be on the cubs he needs to be traded

9. mice spectacles Mr Cozzi

10. Matt looks like he’s doing standup

11. Matt with the commentator vibes!

12. So like the Cubs.everyone with sky high expectations..as we should have..and they fall flat on their faces. Flopping against supposedly the worst team in MLB..That is so Cubs 😅.

13. God I love you guys. As a Brewers fan I was so surprised this off season that everyone was talking about how the Brewers would not do it again because they are fluky or that they aren't this good. They've been the same for years. Why would it change? Wishful thinking? Thanks for keeping it real.

14. Cubs aren't as good as fans think, while Nationals are not as bad as fans think.

15. Shota needs to go to AAA, Bring up Assad

16. Ballestaros is overrated

17. Totally unacceptable!!! There is no way, no reason you should lose to the Nationals.

18. Moises Ballesteros needs to be starting every day and CATCHING at Iowa. With Carson Kelly '27 being an option, Ballesteros' bat value is as a catcher. PCA should bunt once a game every game to keep defenses honest. I like PCA bunting.

19. The more games the Cubs lose that they should win is gonna be pressure on Counsell. He is not a good manager and he is proving it again.

20. Cassie

21. If they lose the angels series we can hit the panic button

22. I say it’s exactly the time to FREAK OUT!!!!! Playing the rest of the season seems like a waste of time at this point. Then a lock out in 2027? What are we gonna do?

23. I CAN'T FU*KING BELIEVE THIS😞😞😞

24. I AGREE with Matt I MATTERS

25. SHADES OF BREGMAN & EDWARD 2 EXTENSIONS IN UNDER A WEEK

26. Why in the 8th is a lefty in while 3 of the 1st 3 hitters are right?

27. As a CUB fan in Madison, hard series to watch my Milwaukee Brewer friends are happy

28. Not going to lose my mind over this, however this is nothing to brag about.

29. Same with Ben Brown 🤬

30. It's not about the 3 games its about the opponent. We are the better team and this weekend was underwhelming

31. This guy is trash and we knew lasts year why on earth do they offer a qualifying offer . He will be cut in 3months and released

32. Don't look now, but Owen Cassie is batting .500, with 4 RBI's. So once again, Jed trades away a 23 year old, future all-star right fielder for an average pitcher who is past his prime.😮

33. You guys are funny as hell lol

34. Cassie looked good this weekend lol

35. Cubs are so far behind teams like the brewers just from an overall franchise standpoint. Starting from the top of the majors all the way down to international youth scouting. Sams been saying that for quite some time and he’s spot on.

36. Bregman hit 2 homers ….. PCA almost hit one to dead center …… no Suzuki yet and shotah did what he always does …. Give up a home run and pitch well the rest of the time ….. it will be fine

37. Same crap different year.

38. TheCubs will be just good enough for fans to sing “Go Cubs Go” a lot at Wrigley Field…maybe make the playoffs, only to lose….the Ricketts will make a ton of money and all will be well….

39. This team is never ready to go.

40. I'm a Cub fan, and even I feel like defending the Brew Crew. I'm getting tired of the constant excuses of how they "fail upward" winning the division each year. They have absolutely dominated the NLC each year since 2018, with the exception of a couple years. Give them their flowers (or round of beer). They earned it. All I keep hearing from Marquee is a constant reminder of how much Cubs ownership & front office have FAILED SPECTACULARLY compared to the Brewers. So they need to stop glazing themselves. I'm over it.

41. Just a friendly reminder Jed gave up Cam Smith and Owen Caissie in back to back seasons. Caissie hit a walk off home run this year already.

42. Do you guys even make 100k a year combined? And you think ur worthy of critiquing guys who make 20 million a year. Get a life you losers
