When you’re managing an under .500 team in game 161, down 7-3 about to allow your “rival” to clinch home field in first playoff round…

And acting like intentionally walking their hitter to prevent him from a chance at a cycle is your World Series…

Your organization is absolute garbage.

STOP with Castro, #Cubs.

Take the L on the trade.

Hey Craig and Jed, there's something called the "sunk cost fallacy".

I've saved you some time, here it is.

Get Willi Castro off this #Cubs team.

98 mph, out of the strike zone.

Me: Nice job Pete, not swinging.

Relax, #Cubs fans. this was all part of Jed's plan.

Candidate for the worst strike 3 call of the year.

Add the situation - tie game bottom 8, and it's disgraceful.

Umpires: HP: Brock Ballou.

Blue Jays were 3 games above .500 on June 1st, now the Cubs are playing them at +20.

What if Rogers had come in sooner?

We’ll never know.

Tucker (probably): "Glad you didn't get traded, Pete."

Dave Roberts showing - and earning - serious disrespect.

Seiya Suzuki even got snubbed from the "ALL-SNUB TEAM" article headline.

Massive disrespect.

The fact that on cubs.com Standings are not displayed at all on the home page, but also NOT EVEN shown as an item on the main menu unless your browser is > 1700px wide, is a fireable offense.

If only there had been some way to know what was coming with Nate Pearson...
June 22, 2025 at 9:14 PM
Nice move, Jed and co.

You managed to replace a struggling reliever with one who is even worse.

A professional #Cubs baseball coach or player said “lets throw Cal Raleigh, who has hit 3 home runs in our 2 games, a first pitch fastball in the zone where he can extend his arms”

And it ended just how you'd expect.
