- The Cubs are officially in last place in the NL Central after dropping their third consecutive game to the Reds by the score of 4-3 on Saturday afternoon at Great American Ballpark. The Cubs now sit at 31-34 on the season, 7-15 vs the NL Central and 12-14 in one-run games on the season, simply not good enough.
Anthony Pasquale hosts the show, and talks about the Cubs' disappointing stretch, and how it may be indicative of the Cubs' plans at the trade deadline. Anthony gets heated talking about Patrick Wisdom in the leadoff spot, as the Cubs sit on their hands with Seiya Suzuki and Nico Hoerner banged up.
Anthony also offered some options of players that could come up to the big leagues should those players' need IL time: Brennan Davis, Alexander Canario, Owen Caissie, Miles Mastrobuoni and Luis Vazquez.
PLus, Jordan Wicks is back -- and he pitched well out of the bullpen on Saturday.
Cubs at Reds 12:40 CT
Shōta Imanaga (5-1, 1.88 ERA) vs Frankie Montas (3-4, 4.00 ERA)

Did you mention Bote?
You can’t switch to seller yet because they’re only a game out of first in the wild card. It’s not too late to turn it around with the right pieces.
Maybe the Cubs could trade Morel at trade deadline and get some pieces the Cubs need, like a catcher and some young arms. Maybe do the same with Wesneski.
You did mention Bote but he had three hits yesterday and was left stranded. I’m not saying he’s a star but he is looking good and fit. If he can help the team let’s at least give him a chance to perform.
Of course he is benched today
THEY FINALL WON TODAY!!!!! YAYA!!!!! SHOTA GOT THE W
We’re a piece or 10 away. A few reliable pen arms that can record 3 outs before allowing a run in relief, a catcher who can hit and play defense, a third baseman who can field routine grounders, 8 more upgrades in our lineup and cross our fingers the Cardinals Reds and Pirates turn back the clock to 2023 and the Brewers remember they were supposed to regress with the absence of Counsell.
Then we’ll be back in business.
This team is unwatchable, there isn’t one player to get excited about. I’m more excited about the kids in the minors than these guys.
All the fault of little jed hoyer. He was so angry about being overshadowed by a real leader and a real man that he had to get rid of him. He didn't care about our history and traditions, or even what our guys did for us in 2016. He is only capable of thinking about what would help himself personally. We were on our way back to the top, and fast!!! Rossy is the best young Manager in baseball and every single player is better under his LEADERSHIP. This would easily be a first place team with our real leader in charge. Our run was just starting. Curse of Cutthroat jed can easily be fixed. Our leader is at home watching since the timing with wich he was robbed and embarrassed. hoyer shouldn't even be allowed in restaurants on the north side. Not one more cent from me!!!
Like I said, you just proved my point, most of those names you mentioned were on teams that went to the Postseason, and contributed!!
Hitting coach is doing anything to change on how to attack the pitching
Idk
How do you get hurt from a pitch, not in the head but, in your side, and not from a pitcher, and from that distance!!??🤨🤔
It's hard being a Cubs fan sometimes.
hoyer has destroyed our tradition and honor. He's robbed us all. Our guys are embarrassed to take the field with the Brewers manager.
You mean there's no competent position player in the Minors that they can bring up!!??🤨🤔
"THANK YOU!!" Mike drop!!🎙️👏🏾👏🏾
Won't happen but they ahould look to trade Happ, snd Suzuki. And yes i know they have no trade clauses. There are ways to trade them anyway. Then call up Cassie and Davis. Or Canario. Trade Tauchman as well. See what they have for next season
We have runners in scoring position every inning practically and can’t get a hit To score run. Can’t put the ball and play to score a run can’t keep from striking out to score run
That is super frustrating
Council can do a better job though. Talk to Brewer fans and they also
said that Council made several mistakes.
This team needs to be smashed into a thousand pieces and the best young prospects need to be brought up and allowed to play full-time. Bench, trade, or release the veterans, which means eating a lot of salary. There has to be a good 60 to 75 percent turnover between the 2024 and 2025 teams. 2 of the 5 starting pitchers are already young prospects in Brown and Assad, so that's a good start. Let's make it 3 out of 5 plus Steele and Imanaga. I assume that pitcher will be Horton. As for position players, Morel, Busch, Crow-Armstrong, and Amaya (needs to improve his defense and game calling) should be holdovers and considered the players to build around. So 5 other starters need to be determined from prospects. A few of the veterans can stick around as backups and bench players-- Hoerner, Suzuki, and Happ or Tauchman would be my picks. The bullpen needs to be gutted and stocked with young arms. Leiter, Wicks, and Wesneski or Merryweather can be holdovers.
Big money and forever contracts are not always wise.
Why didn’t Hoyer trade for Luis Arraiza. Again he is leading the majors in hitting and Marlins only received a couple of beers for him.
The Cubs gotta get rolling I didn't sign up to be a Mets like fan this year and get my heart broken again Mick... That's exactly who the Cubs are looking like the Mets sloppy defensive can't score enough runs and pitching is good usually or at least quality but it doesn't matter due to not being able to score runs.... If the Cubs don't turn this around soon I got the Orioles for the Post Season 💪🏼 If the Cubs don't do anything this year I'm going Oriels all the way and on my time I'll give them until the homestand if they are still loosing the season is a wash in my eyes... Don't we have bats ready what about Luis Vasquez?? Brennen Davis? Someone to help spark the offense
The Cubs can just go sign a lumberjack for power, a fencer for battling eye, a track athlete for speed, and a boxer for defense. All for cheap.
We are definitely a bad team right now. It's really hard to believe.
I said going into this series the red's were going to spank them but I didn't expect outright abused
Yeah but, where are they in the Majors!!??🤔 It seems all these prospects are trade pieces!! The truly talented ones seem to end up on other teams, making an impact in the Postseason!!😲🤨🤔😠It seems everytime Jed speaks, it's all word salad!!🤨🤥
Thanks for the show Ant! LET'S GO CUBS!!! ⚾️✌️💙🐻
Go Cubs!
Happ again ! i don't care about his recent mini hot streak. Twice this guy came up with men on and failed. When are they going to realize this guy is a lifetime 240 hitter who gets walks and nothing else. Please go to the minors and bring up one of those kids and try to trade Happ ASAP !
To be a Gen Zer for a moment - FIRST! Haha. Good show Anthony! Agree with your takes especially about Hoyer and Counsell's decisions. And the "panic button". 😢
The best CUBS team in 1 run games was the 2016 CUBS.
Great teams win the close ones
Who they gonna sell,starting pitchers,none of there hitters are doing squat,I don't think they even try anything different,an it's showing on there starters,there flustered,it does get in there mind
Here’s how I feel. I just canceled marquee sports network. I have it until June 23. They need to prove to me that they are worth my time. I’ll listen to pat and Ron for free.
At least I subscribed to MLB TV where Iowa and Tennesee games are shown. Iowa games are far more exciting than the Cubs’.
I'm protesting until hoyer is gone. I doubt they'll fix his mistakes, but I cancelled everything the day he backstabbed Rossy for the Brewers manager. There was no chance that would improve a team that was on an incredible path to the top. I used to fly myself and friends/family to Chicago every year for games and paid for several team subscriptions. I will never spend one single penny on this honorless loser who destroyed our culture. The family atmosphere is gone and the positivity is gone. Now they all know they will be thrown aside if the team thinks it can make an extra dollar. No talent will sign. Belli tried not to but eventually made the reluctant choice to return. Curse of Cutthroat jed can only be fixed by his termination and a public apology and rehiring of our leader.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 by June 23 your going to hit your mother 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Enjoy the annoying McDonalds commercial every 10 minutes
You can talk about selling but who is going to take any of our everyday players or relievers? We won't get much for any of them. I'm also tired of hearing about last year's turnaround. There will be no turnaround as long as the offense is broken, the defense sucks, and the bullpen can't get anyone out. Even if the offense improves the defense and bullpen will still find ways to lose. As for analytics, I don't care about them. I'd play the guys who give me the best chance to win--period.
Funny everyone says that "I would rather have this rookie or that rookie" but there stats are against other minor league pitching. these at bats would be against MAJIOR league pitching. Remember how overwhelmed Mick's "Savior" PCA looked last year (O for the season). And he was "an accomplished" hitter.
The whole, at least it isn't so and so, would that make up for beg tied in last place? I doubt it. I am sure the fans here would still complain. I am also sure the host would make excused for the rookies (because everyone knows these rookies are better then the majors leaguers, right Mick?
CUBS have the most 1 run games in the majors. The problem is that they haven't won enough of those games.
Mick- what do you think of Bote getting benched after getting three hits yesterday?
This cub team is so predictable that I turned to my brother yesterday and said after his third hit that he was playing his way out of the lineup Sunday.
Not saying we agree, but the Cubs love the analytics. Bote started yesterday because a lefty was in the mound - so the Cubs feel the hits were because they put him in a place to succeed. Hes in the bench today because a righty is on the mound. Counsell loves the L/R splits, which is why sometimes guys are on the bench after a big game.
@@cubsbaseballchannel I understand what you are saying. its happened WAY more than it should over the last couple years with different players.
There is something to be said for players getting into a groove.
Starting pitching isn't the problem. Weak contact, first pitch swinging, rally killers are. You can't keep leaving men in scoring position. You can't always expect to get something going with two outs. When one bat gets cold one of the other millionaires MUST step up!
Now that we have to eat Counsell, what I Would do if I was one of the Ricketts?
1) Fire Hoyer. Too arrogant, incapable of making good trades, since is not liked by other gen. managers, but Royals and Padres (both he got fleeced by).
2) Since we have to swallow Counsel, fire ALL coaches, let him choose which to keep if any, or bring from outside. Let him choose. If there is a chance to bring back Ross in any capable form (Assistant Manager, Coach, Office, whtaever. Pay him more if we have to, just to end with that Karma.
3) Sell, sell, sell at the treadline for whoever there is, for anything we can get (for PTBN if needed). Only keep PCA, Starting Pitchers Lineup, a couple of bullpen arms, Tauchman as a veteran cheap OF and Nico as utility IF as Zobrist. Bring all the kids to see which are the ones who can get it done at MLB. For the rest of the team, get whoever or whatever other teams may give us. Then get FA as needed.
4) DFA those that are in their last year contract (Hendricks, Bote).
Didnt know Bote had a 3 hit game (I changed channels from the game at the mid 6th inning. We can keep Bote til the end of the season, since he will be a FA.
While of course I'm still a Cubs fan, I can't pay attention to this team right now. It's too distressing! Wake me up when we have a new owner and general manager! I think their top leadership "skills" are contagious, because Counsell seems lost: Wisdom as your lead-off man?! Is EVERYONE associated with the Cubs gone completely loco??!!
The Cubs were on fire a big part of last year and had the best clubhouse and team vibe in all of baseball. We were at the beginning of a big run that would have been years long.
Then they took a crap on our culture, honor and history when they decided to embarrass and fire our team hero and great young Manager. Our ownership wanted to cheat with the neighbors wife while being clueless to what they had. hoyer has no understanding of baseball, leadership or even what it means to be a human being. We were where we needed to be and ahead of everyone else's schedule. He has cursed the team and the only solution is his removal and a huge apology to our players, fans and our real leader, David Ross.
I'd like to see the Cubs win but, I hate that song, they should go back to that song from the 60's!! Like the Bears, and Blackhawks!!🤔😏👍🏾
The song is definitely not the problem.
I love the song. What was the song before Go Cubs Go? The predates me
It was “Hey Hey Holy Mackerel- The Cubs Are On Their Way”, because Jack Brickhouse always said “Hey Hey” for home runs. The current song is a definite upgrade.
Craig Counsell was hired but, he didn't come with the rest of his team!! He's like this shiny new toy the Cubs bought, but needed a lot of accessories, which they didn't purchase!!🤪🤨
Fortunately, it will be the last of Jed Hoyer with our Cubs (I hope so). Hoyer was only presenting to Ricketts as a smart guy, getting us suckers to keep hoping without spending. Now, we have to see if Ricketts care more about fandom as a last investment or not.
I think results matter to the Ricketts
Our luck needs to change. Happ foul pop out in the top of the ninth is how our luck has been going.
I made this comment on other Podcasts!! The starters are not having the same success,in my opinion because there is absolutely zero offense, and they feel like they have to make the perfect pitch right out of the gate!!🤨🤔
Everything took the step back that it clearly would, when they backstabbed our leader. Rossy the CATCHER and real LEADER, who understood this team and baseball culture, was the reason this team was overperforming. Every single player has been forced to regress with the current leadership void. This was all clear to many thinking people, from the moment the coop occurred. There can never be positive results to stupid, selfish and negative actions. We were at the beginning of a long term streak of winning and fun/entertaining baseball. Cutthroat jed wiped out our honor and threw our traditions in the trash for what he thought would be personal gain.
I've been a Cubs' fan since the 60's!! This is a bad lifeless team!! Now, when they lose, I have no feeling!!😒
I’m with you and stopped investing emotionally in this team for a while now. They’re not worth it.
Curse of Cutthroat jed. Fire jed and beg our leader to return!!!!! Send the Brewers back their manager.
Tb is next. We can sweep them. They can't hit. We can hold them to 2 runs and we win. Sweep!
Get rid of Morel! Is it true that Pete Alonso wants to be a Cub?
What happens when no one on a MLB team can hit a fastball down the middle?
Is there any way to check Brewers payroll ti see if Counsell is getting paid as a double agent?🤣😂
I don't blame him, but as a baseball guy, he should have known better. He should have laughed in Little hoyer's face and called a reporter. Backstabbing your historic hero and great leader is never a good idea.
.......AND!! You know what's sad!!??🤔 If they don't get their heads out of their butts, might end up with a worse record than the White Sox!! and, wouldn't that be a kick in the teeth!!😂............."Go Bears!!"🏈
May be that Counsel is throwing off all games to get fired an manage another team next year or stay at home with his family as he wanted. This is much to digest for a winning manager as he was in Milwakee😂
Gotta be smart sellers. This season is cooked for the Cubs. I haven't seen any sign that they're going to pull it out of the trash.
Furthermore, I think we may all have been wrong about Craig Counsell. I had faith in him after his success in Milwaukee, but some of his decisions are baffling. Having Wisdom lead off a lineup is at the top of that list. It's like he forgot everything he knows about baseball. Did he take a blow to the head?
They are going to have to make that decision in the next month
@@cubsbaseballchanneldo you think we were bamboozled by the Craig Counsell hype machine? All I've heard for the last 5 years is how great he is at managing the game. I haven't seen it yet.
The bullpen has been terrible last 3 years, and they never did anything to make it competitive.
The Bullpen is horrible
Wisdom, Hendricks, and Gomes shouldn't be anywhere near the roster. Madrigal could be DFA'd and still stay in the organization because no one would want him. That's 10 percent of the 40 man that doesn't belong and we wonder why they're not winning.
Roster management is a dude issue
@@cubsbaseballchannel yeah, there's a bunch of dudes in the minors who couldn't do worse.
Boring team. There is only one explanation for all this turmoil. And it’s call Karma. I do not favor Ross instead of Counsell, but the way it was done, wasn’t ok. I had a bad feeling, by then. Jed sold us Counsell as the only solution to us & Ricketts (as a cheap one).
You are repeating what I have been saying for over a month! Thanks for coming around! Fire Hoyer is first! Then rebuild! Happ is worthless, Bellinger could care less still butt hurt after no big contract, Suzuki can't catch, Morel is the new Wisdom, Swanson can't hit, we have No first baseman, no catcher, no rotation, no bullpen! Wisdom needs to be DFA'd along with Gomes and that F'in jerk Ricketts needs to spend money on exceptional players like he promised or sell the damn team!!!
You are right about Happ ! What does this guy have on the organization to keep him on the team. He is WORTHLESS
See? These Reds see some blood and go for the overkill. That is why I‘ve been considering the Reds to run out with the division since February, and they only added Candelario.
Counsell is making too many decisions like a GM and not like an in game manager. Willie Harris is a horrible 3rd base coach. He leads the league in runners being thrown out at home plate in the last 3 years. If Ricketts did shut down anymore spending Jed's hands are tied until off season when Smyly, Hendricks, Bote, Mancini, Gomes and other contracts come off the books. After the Brewers traded their ace wnd lost Counsell they havent missed a beat. Maybe he is over rated? Maybe Ross was a better manager than we thought. Wisdom leading off is horrible! Counsell, step away from your computer and focus on managing the team!
When is Jed going to wake up? They need help and he’s doing nothing. Wisdom leading off? He should be in Iowa. The Crapper loves to hit in Cincinnati? He’s not hitting anywhere. The pen is terrible and we need a catcher who can hit more than his weight. It’s getting real tough to watch this pathetic team. It’s now or never, start making some moves.
I don’t want to bitch too much, but today’s broadcast crew leaves a lot to be desired. You have a basketball/softball announcer and Elise as the on field person who obviously wants as much or more air time as play by play person. J.D. is the only saving grace. Without him, it’s time to hit the mute button.
🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹
Missing Joe Madden these days….baseball needs some instinct not just analytics everything! It’s boring and doesn’t work. Jed has tanked this team with endless bad decisions and lack of decisions. Embarrassing.
Pat Murphy for Brewers does a lot based on instincts.
