The CUBS and bunting

The Padres had 48 sacrifice bunts in the 2025 season, leading all of Major League Baseball. They also had 39 total bunts (sacrifice bunts, bunt hits, and bunt outs), which was the second-most in the majors behind the Brewers. 

AI wrote that. Now, does the above make ANY sense whatsover? No. AI can NOT be trusted, especially when spewing out stats. Lesson learned?

NOT by the Cubs!! THEY bunted just NINE times last year. And you plan to win a World Series when you can’t MAKE things happen?

The CUBS have ALWAYS just put up BIG bats. People want to see DINGERS!! I get it. But if that is all you are doing, with, what, a 5% possibility… and a 50% probability of STRIKING OUT, well then, you’re killing yourselves aren’t ya. You don’t NEED SEVEN home run hitters, you need THREE; one will play 3rd, one 1st, and one in the outfield. The REST are supposed to GET ON BASE!!
