"The Cubs' 41 runs scored put them 17th in MLB, their .132 ISO ranks 20th, their .297 on-base percentage is 22nd, and their .199 average is 28th."
"The Cubs' .240 BABIP sits at 28th in MLB, 47 points below the current league average, which says they're hitting into a lot of terrible luck."
"Their 45.9% hard-hit rate is third in the league and their 90.2 mph average exit velocity is fifth."
The Cubs are currently in last place with a 4-6 record after losing two consecutive games. Their offensive performance is subpar, ranking 17th in runs scored and 28th in batting average. The pitching staff also struggles, particularly the bullpen with a 4.50 ERA. Despite these challenges, underlying data suggests potential for improvement, as the Cubs have a high hard-hit rate and average exit velocity, indicating they may be experiencing bad luck rather than a lack of talent.
