Not that it matters because it’s the most inaccurate metric in the MLB, but you should learn to read it correctly. What you posted is the remaining games not the games already played

I’d like to see them use Gomes more behind the plate. He was hitting great late last season, but not getting regular starts hurts his offensive game.
The Cubs have definitely faced the top line pitchers for the teams that they play. I agree that they will come around and start being more consistent.
For once the pitching isn’t the problem as it has in the past. Although the bullpen has had some early struggles, they’ve come around to be better. They still have a couple guys that struggle to throw strikes early in the at bats and end up giving up hits when they have to throw in the strike zone.

Cubs are definitely struggling offensively. They have faced some really good starting pitchers over the past few weeks. I think it not only lowered their averages but it also had put a hurting on their hitting confidence. Now even average pitchers seem tough.
Getting nothing from the catcher position, all year. Not sure what they can do but the catcher position hitting .180 can’t continue. The Cubs haven’t been shy about sending pitchers down, benching regulars, etc. Maybe there’s a catcher in the system that can hit over .200.
The Twins had a 12 game win streak are aren’t in first. I don’t like their chances. The Cubs have struggled and are only a couple games back. Their best baseball is ahead of them.
The Cardinals have played better the last week but they still stink out loud. The Cubs have to take care of business in St. Louis. Get those bats going against a meaty Cardinals starting rotation. Gray has been tough but other than that there’s a lot of rag armed veterans.

After it was 7-1last night I didn't bother turning the game backon. What was the final score? Anyhow were playing one of the best teams in the league right now. We do need todo better,that's a fact. Far as our poor hitting this year I feel we will improve once our full team is back in the lineup. It'll take some time. It's only May. We start winning in late August and September then we go into the playoffs redhot and win some games . I believe in this team. Why does everyone expect win now, win every day? It's the Majors! Any team can win against any team at any time!
