[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1548639, member: 26283"] The announcers last night said the Cubs’ offense is broken and they were exactly right. Through the first 36 games of the season, the Cubs averaged 4.92 runs a game. Over the last 17 (which includes a 12 run outburst), they’ve averaged 3.24, and the approaches of several of their should-be stars has been horrible. On the flip side, the Cubs bullpen, which started the year miserably has dropped its ERA to 4.26, good for a respectable 5th in the NL. The Cubs pitching is good enough to do some damage in the playoffs, but the offense reeks right now, with Happ, Schwarber, Bryant, Rizzo and Baez all looking lost up there. I’m sure they’ll fire the hitting coach again, but this is the third or fourth year in a row the offense has gone on a tailspin right at the end of the season. [/QUOTE]
