Chicago Cubs starting to SPEAK OUT on underwhelming season

1. Mastro & Wisdom should be DFA today. Give Cassie and Shaw a taste of the big league for the final six games.

2. 1. get rid of smiley

3. First thing! If Wisdom is on this team taking time away from Michael Busch then we are not serious! WISDOM IS A HACK!

4. Happ needs to start playing like a winner! Stop walking to keep your stats high! Come on hit the damn ball!

5. Mastro Tauchman Wisdom should never play for the Cubs again. Absolutely brutal

6. Dansby Swanson played poorly all year. Of course we heard from good old Dansberino about how the team needs to be better, but he didn’t speak much about his individual performance this year. Hopefully during the offseason he will have a Dansbiphany and figure out how to hit again.

7. The cubs win around 83 games a year just dont cut it they do spend money the problem is not the right mix the bats go slight for a week at a time and the bull pin is a big problem !!!

8. truthfully this season was fun. it could’ve been better but there were nice moments. we just gotta keep building and make those big moments like we mentioned

9. Swanson could've hit better. Great with the glove. But doesn't hit in clutch

10. Shame you guys are not doing Bears football, but doing the Cubs and Bears might bring Matt and Sam to heavy drinking and then some. 😅

11. You know most of the cubs players have been injured that's a good excuse right?

12. Anything below

13. In a nutshell, the Cubs blew 25 or something games. If they blow 5, they are at 100 wins right now. Has Clase blown 25 games? No, hence Cleveland is on their way. Moreover, as I have said, the Cubs LACK aggression. They don't swing at the first pitch strike. They take close pitches that are more often than not obvious strikes, or close strikes, or even an inch off the plate. They take ALL of them. Suzuki with this check swing crap? He's a .280 hitter being a moron. He's a 300 hitter if he's aggressive because he's a great bat to ball dude. If it is 2 and 0 in a hitter's count? They TAKE that pitch. What is their average with RISP? Yes, Suzuki gets jobbed on close pitches but he's so dumb he continues to strike out looking and he continues to take strike one down the middle. You must be aggressive, hungry, cocky, etc. They are really close to being a good team but they also groove 1 and 2 pitches as pitchers. It's a fundamental thing, a mindset thing, not a talent thing. Yes, they don't have Harper or Betts or Freeman. But they do have really good players. Their bench sucks. Why Mastro and Wisdom are on the team is a mystery to me. So, they need to pitch better in the 8th and 9th, and they need to attack as offensive players. That's how close they are to being a 90 or 100 win team.

14. Hoener said "Close isn't nearly good enough."

15. The more these guys talk the more i smell Mark Trestmanitis

16. Swanson is a joke , don't care for him. There's no captains on the team . Just crap cubs settle for. Sam is rite about 82 wins. When year started I had em at 89. Chicago sports is a joke . Why cable is canceled . Will be off to see bulls lose first game of the season. What's there to look forward to. Same cubs next year and year after that. Cubs don't want to win , and get talent. Do you see the Padres hanging on to young guys , no they trade. Cubs you do not have talent in the minors , who are you kidding. Pca is OK got better. But real won't go farther. Bellinger, Swanson, are problems. Big problems are Hendricks, smyly, and waste of money like wisdom. Cubs need catcher, 3rd baseman, closer, and star starter,and a great hitter. Same as last season. And. I'm not sticking around to wait. F you marquee network , and Comcast. There's a radio. Thank for your input Sam and Matt. Go mets… lmfao.. jed is a piece of crap…

17. Go cubs😊

18. No reason this ballclub shouldn't be the 6 seed at the end of this season. Pay Soto whatever he wants, grab corbin burnes and lets get that division next season

19. Again….. 17 games BELOW .500 for 2 months got you all this. Dansby opened his yapper last year to begging not to blow up the team at the trade deadline and then proceeded to 💩 the bed in Sept. Stop the talking and play better ball Dansby. His name was Dansby “HUUUUYYY 1, HUUUUUUUUT 2, HUUUUUUYYYYYYYYYYY THREE” Swanson the K machine for the better part of 75% of his play this season. Get your ish together.

20. It seems we’re great at winning one game of a series 9-2, then losing the other two games 3-2 and 1-0.

21. Your talk about having to beat Milwaukee sounds a lot like the way people used to talk about the Bulls having to beat Detroit. They drafted to be able to get past them and they succeeded. The Cubs need to follow that kind of path.
