Shota Imanaga’s Cubs slump gets brutal truth bomb from former player

Chicago Cubs fans have been left scratching their heads after the Milwaukee Brewers have run circles around the Cubs during the first two games of the NLDS. The troll accounts on social media have suggested that the Astros might be channeling the 2017 Houston Astros, but the truth is that Shota Imanaga has been bad since the start of September.

Imanaga's struggles continued in Game 2 of the series on Monday night. Despite looking dominant to open the bottom half of the first inning, striking out the first two batters of the Brewers' lineup with ease, things quickly spiraled out of control.
