There is no better microcosm to show the overall struggles of the 2020 Cubs offense than seeing just how bad Javier Báez has been.
And yeah, it's been as bad as you thought. How about the fifth worst offense since Aug. 1.
After their second straight loss to the Pirates Wednesday night, Báez's wRC+ dropped to 52, tied for last in MLB. His wOBA is now at .249. We're now talking about one of the worst, if not, the worst qualified hitter in MLB so far in 2020.
Oh, and add lowest OPS to the list
Báez has been awful. The Cubs offense has been awful. The offense will probably be awful next week in the playoffs, too.
