Ross is under no pressure with this group. If the expiring contract guys suck it'll save Rickets money. They'll go nowhere until they draft, sign, and trade better. Which we know the Cubs rarely do. If they do, they trade the guy away.

Launch angle has destroyed many of the Cubs hitters. How low will their stats end up being sadly is this teams most interesting thing to watch.

This team has the vibe of the 2005 Cubs train wreck which led to the 2006 tanking and the end of Dusty. Massive disappointment in 2003, a late season collapse in 2004. They all knew their days were numbered this winter even before the Darvish trade, and the low ball offer to Rizzo confirmed it.

I had no recollection that Jody Gerut, Enrique Wilson, and Ben Grieve all had cups of coffee with that 2005 team. That's what August is going to look like.

2005 was 79-83. 2006 was 66-86, then Sam Zell panicked and they hired Sleepy Lou and got Soriano.

Launch angle. SMH. That was a Bernsie favorite.

Ross has become the team mascot the Cubs always loved to have to keep the people happy during their century of suck

Dunno. Not one Cub fan here seems to be happy with the team.
