Bummer stinks

I really wish they would've traded him for something. I'm sick of watching Bummer suck.

Madrigal and Benintendi with exact same batting average now...Benintendi has him by 0.15 OPS points though after his recent "power surge."

Bummer just not worth a darn anymore, lighter fluid.

When are all those stories going to come out about Madrigal being a bad teammate like I heard? That was another bad trade and I thought so at the time. 

Ramsey the lowest ERA of all six pitchers used today...4.05

That would interfere with all the local media Cubs worshipping...

 

And Burger part of a ninth inning rally to get the Marlins back into the WC hunt.

Trading away 1st round picks is not working.

Not sure keeping Vaughn is working either.

Grandal lololol

3-0 tater lolol

Since the vote of confidence for Pedro, this offense has been very anemic. They sure do love playing for him.

A lot of people dressed as green seats today 

Tigers players pretty pumped up after that DP.

when’s the last time you saw that out of our guys?

Another loss, it’s back to the drawing board.

2021.

This team reminds me of the movie Groundhog Day

Getz made a huge mistake day 1 announcing Pedro return, clubhouse knows nothing changing from what it is now. Players are comfortable in mediocrity and it shows.

Still time to turn it around. Last place is within reach. 

What kind of sorry excuse of a starting pitcher can’t last 2 innings against the Detroit tigers

Kopech needs to be shut down for the rest of the year to get his mental approach working again. He needs another break like he took in 2020 (of course that may be part of the problem, he costs himself valuable time pitching)

If KC sweeps us there is a good chance that they can catch us.

I agree with everyone else. There is no reason for Kopech to start another game this season. Probably not next season as well. His falling off the mound wind-up is awful.  

I realize the Tigers are not as bad as usual, but they shouldn't sweep anyone in their home ballpark. This season can't end fast enough.

Official paid was 22,000 but not sure how many showed up.

Kopech and Bummer both have looks on their faces that seem to be saying damn I suck

One thing Bummer had going for him before was that he did not give up the long ball....that's no longer the case.
