[QUOTE="Illiniaaron, post: 1393847, member: 29101"] While those two plays were somewhat shocking to see at the major league level, just listen to the reporters that cover the Cubs on a daily basis and they are saying the same thing. It's not that I want him to fail. But is seems that he has actually regressed in left. He's not the only guilty party. Russell hasn't been stellar. He had a particularly bad play on Saturday that somehow was charged to Rizzo as an error. When Happ was in center for the first two weeks of the season there were at least three balls that dropped in for hits that a decent center fielder would have caught. Baez has also had some lapses on some easy plays. And Hayward has had an unusually tough time in left. When the offense is struggling you can't afford to be playing bad defense. The first two game of this past weekend's series were complete give-aways. [/QUOTE]
