@PJ_Mooney Trade Suzuki, Happ, Bregman, Swanson, Amaya. We need hitters who are not afraid and who attack. These guys take strikes; panic when they get behind in the count that they create and start swinging at shit. Afraid and stupid is not a good combo. Fire Craig and bring back Ross.
@thescorechicago@DavidHaugh The team sucks and the manager is a moron. NY scored 13 runs in ONE inning against the A's. Now the team has to manufacture runs? Swing at strikes. Take balls. Swing in hitter's counts. Suzuki and Bregman are endlessly behind in the count. Good teams attack. #CubsnotGood
@Cubs@SetupManKyle@SetupManTy If you lose to a guy who had ONE start in the Bigs? It's time to sit Swanson. Order the team to NEVER take a strike 0-0, 1-0, 2-0, 3-1. If it is close? SWING. Cubs have cowards. Afraid to swing. Take with runners on base. Team avg today? .137.
@ESPNRittenberg It is not a line up problem. It is a hitting philosophy that all these retards on the @Cubs have. Take strike 1. Swing at 2nd pitch over your head. Take 3rd pitch in the dirt. Take 4th pitch down the middle. They don't swing 0-0, 1-0, 2-0, 3-0, 3-1. No swing = No Slug.
@GRitz93 Tell them the next time they take a strike, they sit. They take strikes with runners on. Suzuki strikes out looking. It's close. Too close. Bregman takes inside strike with Nico on 2nd and no out. Hit that down the LF line. Nope. Take and then whiff on a pitch a ft. outside.
@RudyGiuliani Remember when Trump went to bed leading in GA by alot. Then GA admitted (recently) that they illegally counted up 350,000 votes for Joe-Trump lost by 11,000 votes or so. CA will do the same. Find out how many they are behind, then a Dem will win Gov and Mayor. Basic shit here.
@Davey_Baseball They could have some slug if they quit taking strikes. down the middle. On the corner. A little low. A little high. It's a strike or damn close. Cubs don't put the ball in play because they never swing. They all beg for walks. Cowards. Afraid. Stupid. Passive. Lame. Bad.
@WatchMarquee Who gives a shit Craig? Start ordering your retarded team to SWING the fucking bats at ANYTHING close. Quit taking strikes. MIL scored 16 runs on 18 hits without ZERO homeruns. MIL puts the ball in play. Cubs? Taking strikes then swinging at balls (Bregman the idiot).
@BleacherNation who cares. MIL scored 16 runs on 18 hits by swinging the fucking bats and putting the ball in play. They hit ZERO homeruns in that game. They swing at everything close and get the ball moving into the field of play. Cubs? Take strikes all fucking day and score one run.
@JesseRogersESPN Team can't win by taking strikes. They are afraid to succeed and afraid to fail. Suzuki and Bregman both are always taking close pitches that are TOO close to take. Bregman takes inside hanger in the 9th. That's a hit down the line if he swings. At least fucking try.
@thekapman You can't win if you don't swing. Suzuki taking close strikes that ARE strikes. Bregman gets a pitch to drive down the LF line and score Nico and tie it up. He takes it. Then strikes out when he is in defensive mode and swings at an outside pitch about a foot off the plate.
@thescorechicago Cubs could have won that series but the manager decided to NOT have Palencia close the game. He's the closer. White Sox care about winning and the Cubs care about winning next week, not tonight. The Cubs care about winning in 2033. White Sox want to win now. different.
@CubsGuy37 Bregman had an inside hanger to drive down the LF line and tie the game. He took that pitch, a strike. He's not ready. He's a punk. Then he swings at a pitch a foot outside to whiff and leave Nico at 2nd. He takes good pitches and swings at shit. Kind of like Suzuki.
@JesseRogersESPN Bregman had a good pitch on the inside corner to drive down the LF line in the 9th. He takes strikes and then swing at stuff 2 ft outside to whiff. He's the most unimpressive player on the roster. He is never ready to hit and do damage. Just put it in play. Like the Brewers.
@Michael_Cerami He takes strikes. He strikes out looking on a pitch that might be 1/32 of an inch low. He takes good pitches. Craig should order him to never take a close pitch again for the rest of his life. This will be his last season playing in Chicago anyway.
@WatchMarquee Would have loved to see Alex NOT take a nice pitch on the inside corner for a strike. You want to drive that down the left field line to tie the game. Or? You can chase a pitch 2 feet outside to strike out as the 175 million dollar man. Not ready to hit. That is Alex Bregman
@WatchMarquee@DriveToyota nobody gives a shit about this. MIL scored 16 runs last night and hit 0 homers. They swing the bat and keep traffic moving. Cubs just take pitches with runners on base.
