And so, you know, teams will go through these stretches no matter how good they are.
And they've had the two streaks of at least 10 wins this year in addition to this terrible losing streak.
But here is the core problem with the Cubs.
In this era of big swing and miss, you've got guys like Jacob Mizorowski, the Brewers, throwing 103 miles per hour.
They have in their rotation the lowest average fastball velocity of the 30 teams.
And it's not close.
And they don't get a lot of swing and miss.
They're 27th out of 30 teams in strikeouts per nine innings.
In this era, that in the end might be debilitating.
So last night, they start Jordan Wicks.
They put him in the rotation.
And he gets beat up.
This is not part of the plan.

He got hurt at the beginning of the year.
Justin Steele
been out.
The bottom line is, if they're going to contend this year, especially in October, because John Smoltz told me 20 years ago, power wins in October, they need to get more swing and miss on their pitching staff.

They have the worst record in the American League.
