Wow.
In a game that they absolutely, positively HAD to have to start any sort of run to even get within sniffing distance of a playoff slot, the Cubs lose badly, 15-6 to the Nationals… at Wrigley... with their "ace" on the mound.
Really?
I'd like to think just when the season has bottomed out and it surely WON'T get any worse, it does.
(And don't call me "Shirley")
That sound you hear on the north side of Chicago and echoing across "Cubs' Nation" is the collective scraping of the hull of the "Good Ship Cubbie-pop" on the shoals.
This team has collectively quit; on themselves, their coaches, management and the fans.
Say "Goodnight" Gracie.
Goodnight Dick...
Sigh.
