Cubs' Jed Hoyer expects team to overcome current slump soon

Chicago Cubs president Jed Hoyer remains optimistic despite the team's recent struggles. Entering Friday's game against San Francisco, the Cubs had lost six of their past 24 games and stood at 33-30, placing them fourth in the NL Central. Hoyer acknowledged that while the team had a successful start, achieving two 10-game winning streaks earlier in the season, they have since fallen to a.250 winning percentage since May 9. He emphasized the need for the team to regain its previous form and control over gameplay without considering any trades at this time.
