Said for years Jed is not good at building a roster. Farm might have talent but they’ve said this for years now. The guy doesn’t win. It’s clear as day

[@andrewb8074]

And they need to do something before that farm system is wasted.

[@blakeadams965]

​@@andrewb8074Yeah best farm system in the league all prospects are brought up for ten seconds to pinch run then sent back down when a proven loser is healed up.

[@jamesmccarthy4777]

​@@blakeadams965All too true!

[@kanderko9449]

Correct, Jed is the worst head of baseball in the league, even the Sux. He lived in Theo’s shadow and is now proving that he has no vision of how to build a contender.

[@milo_4C]

This team is not built correctly. Jed has given the same $20M across 4 different layers w the same skill set. No superstar, no gamer, no vision. There needs to be a new voice

[@TheLearningCatalystCoach]

Agree ..the Happ, Swanson, and Taillon contracts were all terrible(Ian effing Happ has a no-trade clause? GMAFB). The Astros knew something that Jed didn't, which looks like a waste of $8M. $9M for Smyly?? $6M for Gomes? $3M for Bote, lol. Still paying $7M for Trey Mancini, is laughable business management. We're paying the awful Wisdom, what, $2.75M? Such an incredible waste of money from Hoyer.

[@everetttauscher8377]

Thanks for the show guys! LET'S GO CUBS!!! ⚾️✌️💙🐻

[@j.m.santos117]

You guys ROCK!!!

[@elmorekelley5904]

I expected this to happen last year also. How do you spend $230 million dollars on a roster with no superstar, no closer, no third baseman, no first baseman, no leadoff hitter, and no cleanup hitter. Jed got lucky with the starting pitchers.

[@davidsnyderWisdomTrollBlocker]

Well give him some credit come on..Jed got the starting pitchers right!..The relief pitching on the other hand is just lookiNg average. Everyone thought he should have gone after Bader or some other big arm he didn't it cost us..Jed's mistakes with the line up now..Not all his fault..Everyone was happy to land Swanson who would have thought he would be this bad this year?..Belli should be better and Nico should be much better than he is. He failed to get enough hitters everyone thought they needed more than Belli and they did not get another big bat..That mistake is Really showing now. One hot bat can make a WORLD of difference in a line up..That one Quality hitter they did not get and they may have five or more wins now.

[@petehohmann3138]

You’re name is Jed Hoyer, that’s how.

[@cityman1111]

Might I say to you "kids" that those of us who were born in the 50's know pain, know frustration, and unless you were at the games, many of which I was, watching on a TV which barely worked was painful and frustrating on top of the Cubs failings. But the point is that if you multiply your pain and frustration by 7, (for the amount of decades), you've equaled mine.

[@dwmcsweeney]

Somewhere David Ross is smiling inside.

[@yeah771]

Everyone blamed Ross; he's definitely laughing at this organization's downfall. 😂😂😂😂

[@GuyCabliaro]

Have to agree. I was not a supporter, but the team played for him. Counsel looks defeated and it reflects on the team.

[@TheLearningCatalystCoach]

Ross wasn't THE problem, but he was definitely a problem that inhibited the team, even if they "played for him" his decisions cost them 15-20 games alone.

[@naturallawman2965]

​@@TheLearningCatalystCoach yet Ross got them within a game of the playoffs with this same worthless squad

[@andrewb8074]

@@TheLearningCatalystCoach Ross made his mistakes but when you net it all out he vastly overachieved with that roster.

[@Techguyericd]

[@jimjames6990]

Belanger and Swanson are supposed to be Allstars getting paid 35 and 25 million. They are a BUST. You cant trade them. Nobody wants them.

[@Techguyericd]

I remember it wasn't that long ago we were only a half game back from the Brewers. We need to go on a extended hot streak if we don't want Hoyer to dismantle this team in July

[@drummusicinc4027]

Remember in April when we were all cocky and making fun of the awful White Sox? Yeah, this is as bad as I can remember, going back to when I was a kid in the 70s. But, I’m a die hard, I keep letting this team kick me in the balls throughout the week, wreck my weekend, whatever. I’m still a fan , but losing interest. Go Cubs

[@mikewarner5583]

As a brewers fan I feel your pain. (No bs)

[@andrewb8074]

The whole Marquee Network farce doesn't help. I'm not going to keep paying $20/month for...whatever this is.

[@petehohmann3138]

Is it Bears season yet?

[@andrewb8074]

Seems like they blew all that money on Counsell and simply assumed he'd magic his way to success with this mess of a roster. At this moment in time the upgrade from Ross to Counsell is being totally wasted. This is not an indictment of Counsell, but of Hoyer.

[@PatOD75]

Jed should have never been retained and promoted after Theo left. Tom should have just started over fresh with a new GM/team president.

[@davidkeller2208]

The sad thing is, the Cubs have not hit rock bottom yet.

[@justinnoceda2115]

It's turning around tonight I believe in my team we got 90 games left we can turn it around all it takes is somebody to start hitting and others will follow this is rock bottom only up from here

[@jrm2383]

They were going to be sellers last year, but got hot before the all star break. Were competitive rest of the year but didn’t finish strong. They’re still living off that, thinking Counsell would be the difference. Guess not

[@DionysusAlS]

I just want to know when pitchers and catchers report for spring training. That's the only thing to look forward to now. What a disaster.

[@octaviacharles-warner6298]

Good day. Cubs fan from St. Kitts ( Caribbean ). I don't think we should count them out now. Years ago I remember Colorado Rockies was 20 games behind in August/September and they made it to the playoffs. There is hope for the Cubs. I will pray for them. They will come through.

[@Aetnaboy73]

It sucks being a Cubs fan right now, they're hard to watch

[@charlesdarwin180]

Brewer fan here. What happened to the Cubs? If it's any consolation, I feel some sympathy for the team because the Cubs had such big expectations.

[@timothybrooks5921]

Next Year is our year 😂😂😂😂

[@elmorekelley5904]

Again

[@brianchappell4054]

Well said gentlemen. It is across the board. Could they turn it around? Willing to bet your monthly rent/mortgage on that?

[@84koolkid]

I thought they should have been sellers last year. Hopefully they don’t listen to Swanson this year.

[@MooreXplorer]

I was there with my gf Saturday.. her first baseball game ever

[@nathandunn6974]

Getting exposed and beat by teams in the division clearly shows its a failure on hoyer and the Ricketts!! This team has fallen flat on their face and off a cliff!! Good SP horrible garbage bullpen laughable offense that can't hit with RISP bad catcher's that can't hit or throw out base stealers

[@czrad8125]

Ive never seen such an offensively challenged team in my life

[@edwardhilgendorf9740]

Chip Caray's comment about Harry Caray was funny. He was a womanizer that got in trouble in St. Louis for it and was allegedly ran out of town, adding to his legacy IMO.

[@GuyCabliaro]

There is plenty of blame to go around, but the team has Counsel's personality.

[@danwindsor770]

you mean "same lack of personality"

[@rons8079]

Ross has smugly got to be laughing in his beer🍺 right now for what's going on with his former team! I am sure he's rightfully thinking they fired me for him for this pathetic result! It serves them right, as they deserve this very bad result and the blame for their gross miscalculations about my managing abilities!

[@scottemory72]

So tired of people saying Morel is so great and you can’t get rid of him….stop it! He hits an occasional home run, that’s it, that’s all he gives you. I’m glad you guys pointed out what he really is. Some fans love sh$t players like some people love sh$t relationships, a few good times shadows the whole lot of bad times. My question to other Cubs fans: Don’t you want greatness?

[@michaelboldyga6239]

Are you surprised they're in last ? I'm not . This team has no direction and no leadership. . Their so called leader is a big mouth that can't hold up hiis end of the deal , their leading hitter is at .267 and most are below .225 their lousey bullpen is the worst collection of bums I've ever seen , what a bunch of slugs . Their catcher belongs on some American Legion team and yet he's in in the damn lineup every damn day . The manager is an overrated imposter that hasn't done a damn thing to earn his bloated salary, after stabbing David Ross in the back to get tne job . Jed Hoyer has been a disappointment for years now ,while he feeds us the BS about patience and their overrated overhyped farm system . The only bright spot on the entire team has been a high quality starting rotation that doesn't deserve the lack of support they get from that impotent offense and little league bullpen . And lastly , shame on Ricketts for allowing this shitshow to continue . Have a little respect for the fans that fill your ballpark and your wallet .

[@riccorobinson5723]

Jed needs to take a Howie Rossman master class

[@liveanddieinchicagoliveand7074]

I hate to be right I said from the beginning of the season cubs wasn't going to playoffs. Jed and ricketts gotta go sell the team to a owner who going to go all out to win .

[@DionysusAlS]

I think Ricketts is fine as an owner. He did save Wrigley Field and spent a bundle doing it. And he brought that elusive a world series win, although I'm disappointed he wasn't able to get a second with that core group. Beggars can't be choosers and all that. But it wasn't for lack of trying because he did invest a lot of money in player contracts. But the real problems are Carter and Jed. Both have to go. They had their chance and failed. Get someone else in there. Anyway, Ricketts won't be selling his baby the Cubs anytime soon, so it's silly to even entertain the notion.

[@liveanddieinchicagoliveand7074]

@@DionysusAlS ricketts are cheap Montgomery and snell both was right there and juan soto was right there a superstar but no ppl wanted belli back off 1 good year i said then under theses comments no let belli go trade for juan soto go get hader for bullpen i knew the ricketts wasn't going to spend we top 10 in payroll we third biggest market 8 or 9 in payroll thats crazy but ppl will keep shielding and deflecting on ownership. Wrigley packed every year for decent and ok players while all the elite teams got stars everywhere even horrible Cardinals gort Arenado and Goldschmitt thoses two better then any hitters we got.

[@petehohmann3138]

Happy Father’s Day David Ross. You’re probably glad you’re outta here now.

[@jamesmccarthy4777]

Problem is that current lineup is so weak that you could ressurect the best baseball manager of all time and the team still couldn't even avoid last place.

[@kanderko9449]

Any thought of maybe replacing the hitting coach? Nobody’s hitting and yet there hasn’t been a word said about the coach. And while we’re at it, how about a new pitching coach? Thank god the starters have been good, but the pen has been horrific. It doesn’t seem like anyone says anything negative about Hottovy,. Is he the best pitching coach of all time? I don’t think so.

[@robertbyington7715]

Why would anyone looking at this roster think this was a good team. I’m starting to think GC did so well in Milwaukee is it was a better team

[@manueltrevizo4060]

id rather listen to Chip than Boog...iv been watching cubs since i was 5.im 53 now.Chip said looking down instead of up because Chip has beef with Harry for not being around when growing up.

[@naturallawman2965]

Yeah, I remember Chip's days with the Cubs. These guys are a bit young. That was certainly "a Chip joke". He can be like that. Especially with Steve Stone. Chip has been very honest that Harry was not well-thought of by his father Skip. Harry kind of abandoned him. The "proud image" of Caray's presented in the mid 90s, shortly before Chip was hired to do Cubs' Road games for 1998, Chip said was to be closer with Harry and get to know him, but unfortunately Harry passed and Chip was thrust into being the Cubs' new play-by-play man, while carrying a mantle of a man he barely knew. Skip, Harry's son, had only recently (mid 90s) reconnected with Harry, and thus Chip too, and the ice was thawing. If I remember correctly, Harry marrying Dutchie (Harry's widow) is what got them together. She kind of scolded Harry about making amends in his life about his past mistakes before he was gone. Despite Chip growing up in St. Louis a Cards fan, and knowing Harry called Cards games on the radio for them, Chip said he didn't actually meet Harry until he was 9 years old, despite him being "grandpa" and listening to his voice on the radio. These are the reasons Chip went to Atlanta and work his Skip and why Chip has been so overly supportive of his sons, specifically Chris, becoming the Radio play-by-play man for the A's.

[@kdaveeffect]

At least they won for Shota, that's all I got for positivity this weekend!

[@chrisweidner4768]

Cardinals fan here. You are enduring the same dreck on offense as we are. No idea what is going on. All these, supposedly professional batters, continuing to look embarrassing at the plate. Hoping both teams figure it out. This is impossible to watch. I echo all of your talking points. For both teams.

[@DavidRoberg-v8b]

We want Jed to trade for the best catcher and third baseman in the minors. Then our pitchers can keep us competitive!

[@StephenEyman-z2g]

There needs to be a complete reset in the Cubs organization from head office management down to the lowest player keep the good players get rid of the incompetent players they go through the motions of playing baseball but I don't think they have any enthusiasm in it to play I think some of it has to do with Council I think the Cubs need an intervention someone to come in and shake the Cubs up Revitalize them and I also think that council is warning the Cubs to stay in last place so that his former team the Brewers can win the pennant that's my opinion for what it's worth because I am a Cubs fan and I hate to see them lose a lot of games there's no reason for it Cubs just totally got wiped out tonight by the Mets

[@StephenEyman-z2g]

And my second complaint is why would the Cubs get rid of their best players and sign these rookies and get a bunch of Scrubs that is totally Bass ackwards you keep your good players you pay them what they want you get rid of the bad players can you get more good players in their to win games that's the name of the game to win

Swanson had gone hitless in 4 straight games now..Morel is hitting under 200...Amaya and Gomes are under 200 ..Wisdom also..What has Counsell to lose by shaking up the line up..Guys need to be Benched Swanson and Morel...Amaya needs to be replaced..Counsell better get UN Chummy with his players and start Benching guys who aint getting it done..There's guys in Iowa waiting for a Chance to Play..I DONT CARE WHAT SOMEBODY IS GETTING PAID..Counsell Shouldn't either..They not getting the job done it's the BENCH FOR them..DONT TELL ME HE CAN NOT DO IT...HOGWASH..

[@alexscarbrough3744]

Or if you call guys up too fast they end up being terrible anyway, the prospects, I wouldn’t make any trades I’d just use this whole year as an audition. There’s no trade besides a catcher, reliever, or starter that makes us any better now or in the future. This team could have judge or Ohtani but even they couldn’t plug 7 hitting holes in a lineup

I agree. If you keep him in the lineup, he needs to be 7th or 8th till he gets some confidence. I do believe Hoener is just in a slump and will come out of it (he has been hurt also). Personally, I'd have PCA leading off with Hoener or Tachman 2nd (more likely Tachman until Hoerner heats up a little)

when the cubs stink, the last thing I want is some sort of tired fake comeback streak. Just lose a whole bunch, get a top 10 pick. Try again next year, hopefully without Jed.

[@gregthegroove]

Again…. No excuses but seriously, I’m sick and tired of the warning track power and absolute hard hitting lasers straight to defenders and OFers making brick wall catches, Wisdom and Hoerner have just missed homers a few times. It’s MIND BOGGLING how bad defense is. It all makes sense that Dansby has taken a step back step on defense because first base is still a position in training with Busch and Wisdom. I cringe anytime I see Wisdom with a glove. Dansby had Freeman and Olson to pick his shit and now it’s glaring.

Besides being a lousy team what the heck is with the organization having the game on Fathers Day not being aired on their own Marquises network and on ROKU instead . Just asking .

[@brianpowers2315]

Hopefully we win tomorrow!! Great show today! Haha I’ll make it look better! Here I go… Craig Counsell looks so bad, and his team looks so bad, that he looks like he is a double agent. He looks unhappy. He wants to go back to Milwaukee, and I think he might give up the money and do so. But he won’t get the job there, bc obviously it was Pat Murphy. Let’s make a deal. A good old fashioned Major League Deal!! Send Nico to LAD to play SS while Mookie is down. Trade Morel and/or Wisdom to Houston. They’ll do well there with the short porch. And call up Brian Cashman…and tell him you have a 4A 1st baseman that loves line drives to right field. And I’d be willing to bet that Matt Mervis would hit 7/8 HR’s at Yankee stadium alone, due to the shallow RF. Or Boston. Which I think he was auditioning for Breslow and Co. while he was there. He should easily hit 30/35/EVEN 40 Homers with Pesky Pole. And when they pitch away? Bang it off the Monster!! Oh and send Nero’s back to Houston!! Send Happ to Pittsburgh for Hayes. And you better let Vazquez play before you give up on another regular MLB player for the Royals, Rays, Tigers, …I could go on
