Summary
Dan Bernstein and Matt Abbatacola break down the numbers as the Chicago Cubs hit the one-third mark of the season. One clear bright spot: plate discipline. Several Cubs hitters are on pace for career highs in walks, showing a more patient and selective approach at the plate. But despite that success, something isn’t adding up. The Cubs find themselves sitting in fourth place — not where many expected this team to be. So what’s gone wrong? The guys dig into the inconsistencies, missed opportunities, and areas that need to improve. Plus, a look ahead to tonight as the Cubs open a three-game series against the Athletics, with Jameson Taillon set to face Gage Jump. 312 SPORTS PRO SHOP: https://bit.ly/4e7bqyv The Best Replacement Windows And Doors At The Best Price.
