Earlier today, the Chicago Cubs introduced their new mascot. His name is Clark the Cub and, while the Cubs have already said that he's not going to do the things that a lot of other MLB mascots do (i.e. dance on the dugout between innings), Clark is going to be responsible for welcoming fans into Wrigley Field. But from the looks of things, there aren't too many people who want Clark to be the first thing they see at Cubs games next season.

Just take a look at some of the Twitter reactions to Clark below. He might look adorable (in a weird, creepy sort of way). But apparently, he doesn't have too many fans right now:

This is "Clark," the #Cubs' new mascot. Provide your own punch line. pic.twitter.com/86LdbMKss0
The Cubs mascot looks like a Saturday morning PSA about adults touching you innapropriately.
#cubs have a new mascot. Because that fixes everything.
Cubs biggest off season acquisition is a fricking MASCOT!!! Hope he can pitch!!! Somebody put a tent over that CIRCUS!!! #Embarrassing
Looks like someone won the $8000 Art Instructions Schools prize with Clark the Cub. On deck: Tippy. #cubs #tcm pic.twitter.com/Ez2o1aMgsz
Now people will really think the cubs are a joke after seeing the new mascot
It must suck to be a #Cubs fan. The team finally trends and it's because they got a new mascot.
WHY DID THE CUBS GET A NEW MASCOT WHAT IS THIS CHICAGO?????????/
The Chicago Cubs new mascot is more offensive than Chief Wahoo.
I'm really crying at this new Cubs mascot. They about to lose 125 games this season.
HAHAHAHAHAHAH THE CUBS MASCOT HAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA
The funniest thing about the #Cubs new mascot is Clark is gonna grow up and die an old bear before they win a World Series.
Sooo, the #Cubs are gonna have a mascot for the first time ever. Let me be the first to say... Bahahahahaha.
If you all hate the #Cubs mascot now, just wait until they start inviting other mascots to the park to celebrate the mascot's birthday.
Seriously. There are SO many things about the #Cubs we can legitimately complain about. A mascot is not worth your ire.
