chw42 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 We're gonna lose tonight and maybe 2 of the next 3 and still be within 4 games of the AL Central lead.

AJ'S Cousin Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 We all know THEY ( Management) believe that can still make the playoffs and will make a couple of stupid deadline deals.

Expand Yoan looks nowhere near the electric player he was in 2019. Eloy has been a disappointment. Robert shows flashes but needs to be way more consistent. Just too much regression, as this is the age they’re supposed to be improving and they’re going the other way. Reminds me a bit of the last Cubs core after 2016. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOFHurt35 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Lynn and Giolito starts are so demoralizing.
