Sveum: Cubs Will Face Consequences For Poor Play 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Apr 22, 2013 12:24 pm

At 5-12, the Chicago Cubs are struggling this month.


Cubs manager Dave Sveum says that if the team doesn't pick it up, there will be consequences.


"That's why I make statements like I did [Saturday] night," Sveum said. "You've got to perform at the big-league level. There's reasons why people play in the big leagues and have long careers, because they perform on an every-day basis.


"There's reasons why a lot of [guys are] minor-league players. You see it all the time. They can't perform at the big-league level. They're pretty good. They're really good players. But you put the third deck on the stadium and something happens.


"We've got to obviously find that out and make people aware that there are things that can be done if you don't start performing."
