Chicago Cubs fans were not having a good time watching the Miami Marlins score 11 runs in the second inning of Friday night’s game.
The Chicago Cubs fanbase knew what they were in for after watching the team sell every player of value at the MLB trade deadline on July 30. Those players included Anthony Rizzo, Craig Kimbrel, Javier Baez and Kris Bryant. But the faithful did not expect things to get this bad.
On Friday night, the Cubs faced off against the Miami Marlins. In the second inning, the Marlins batted around the Cubs and scored 11 runs. Chicago’s fanbase was completely fed up and vented their frustrations on social media.

I wanted to see the Cubs win a World Series in my lifetime. It happened and I’m gonna have to be satisfied with that. It’s not happening again.

Chicago Cubs: Pitching struggles against Miami Marlins
Cubs fans are not in a good place right now. Let’s not forget that this very same team were blown out by the rival Milwaukee Brewers by the score of 17-4 on Thursday night.
While the future assets Chicago received at the deadline are promising, the fanbase will have to sit through some pretty painful baseball for the remainder of the 2021 season, and possibly beyond.
