Not only did the Chicago Cubs show one of the worst efforts I’ve seen during the Joe Maddon era on Monday night, but because of an off-day, Cubs fans had an entire day to think about a lackluster 1-3 start to the season.
Yikes.
To put it simply, the Cubs’ defensive effort Monday in Atlanta was the worst since former top prospects Josh Vitters and Brett Jackson suited up for the Cubs. If those names don’t ring a bell in your head, August 10, 2012 was the last time the Cubs committed at least five errors in a game.
