Out of curiosity, who are you guys rooting for to get to the NLCS (besides the cubs) and to the world series in the AL??

[Mark_R]

I don't have Cable. Thanks for the heads up on this being available online on mlb.com

Philly, if for no other reason than to NOT have stupid 10pm EDT start times

I'd root for the Rockies as a potential NLCS opponent for the Cubs. We're 5-2 against Colorado on the season and the Cubs have shown they generally match up well against the Rockies. Facing them in the NLCS would be like getting near the end of a big test and realizing you know the answer to the last question.

San Diego since they're the best matchup for the Cubs and also because I'd go to at least 1 game.

 

AL, I guess Anaheim since it's the second closest ballpark to me and I know people who can get me tix to the Angels (my uncle got me tix to game 2 of the WS in 2002 in Anaheim). But the AL is going to crush the Cubs. Or any NL team, for that matter, besides maybe the Phillies.

[E.J.]

This strikezone is absolutely huge.

They're a much different team now than when the Cubs played them. Hitting better, and their #2 pitcher was in the minors last time the Cubs played them.

just turned the game on in the 5th, and Peavy was getting 6 inches off the outside corner. has it gone both ways?

pretty much. both benches have been yelling at the homeplate umpire.

Colorado... and, I dunno.. there would be a lot of drama to a Cubs vs. Red Sox or Yanks World Series...

 

I honestly couldn't care less who we'd face in the WS, how about that.... :D

No, I agree. :D

 

Need a Jake Peavy bunting thread in Rants ASAP. :P

Are the Coors Field grounds people too lazy to even clear the out of town scoreboard?

[Laura]

while Ubaldo is scary, Aram and Soriano combined for 5 games out of a possible 14 against the Rockies, Cliff missed most of those games as well, and the first series took place in the Koyie Hill era, so it's not like the Cubs were at full strength.

I was referring to Franklin Morales, who I think will give the Cubs a tougher time than Ubaldo Jimenez (both look like good young pitchers, eh?).

I dunno. Peavy got some of these pitches.

Oh Jerry. How I've missed you.
