Hard to imagine any team worse than the Cubs as currently constructed, but I suppose the Rockies are that team on the road.

Nice walk off win against a terrible Pirate team
Grey but nice day at Wrigley

I picked an enjoyable game to start watching again. The bottom of the 9th was especially nutty.

Not that I enjoy watching losses, but unless some of these overachievers continue their recent success on next season's roster, this win streak is counterproductive in the grand scheme of things. Hoping the next 2 weeks against the Reds/Giants/Phils/Brewers get us back to reality and on track for optimal draft position.

Yes, they really do need to get back to losing ASAP.

It’s nice to know the Cubs - even the current roster - have more talent than the Pirates.
It was cool to see the Cubs have a couple walk off wins and the HRs were nice today

I will not be pleased if this team loses out on a top 10 pick (and bonus pool $$) and falls below the Mets compensation pick as a result of this fun yet pointless win streak. The losing starts today.

The Pirates are out of town and this Cubs roster is not talented
It was nice to see some Cub victories at Wrigley but the losing will return Cubs face MLB worthy talent
How different the 5th draft pick is from the 8th may not matter if Cubs can’t select and develop talent

It isn't the pick order so much as the several $$ millions they would lose the ability to spend in total on the draft by falling out of the top 10 plus penalties for signing FAs as well. This is much bigger picture than about just having another fun game at Wrigley.

Lack of talent doesn’t seem to phase him.
