The Brewers just scored 6 in the 6th inning to tie it in Washington. The NL Central is pissing me off.

 

The Brewers are 6 games behind the Cubs.

 

Cubs were 8.5 behind the Brewers last June.

Its May...

 

The Cubs keep winning and playing well and there will be nothing to worry about.

 

I cant get upset about a Mil-Was score right now.

 

You're a better man than me. I am scoreboard watching after mid April

[BCVM22]

That's a fine 2/3 of an inning from Howry.

[killthegoat06]

Good job Howry, Eyre, and Ascanio.

This cubs team is way better than last years team that was able to run them down.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Off the bat, that scared me for a second.

[bcruise]

Stupid cameraman. Made it look like that was gone...

[Little Slide Rooter]

Those camera angles get me every time. The only worse thing than losing the series to the Pirates would be losing it to Luis Rivas and Ronny Paulino.

I'm confident that the Cubs can beat the Brewers, Astros, and Cardinals. It's just frustrating.

The point is that being 6 games up right now doesn't really mean all that much. It's nice, and anyone would rather be 6 games up than 6 games back, but it doesn't guarantee you anything.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 25-2 when they lead after 8 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

That sounded good off the bat.

Which is why paying any serious attention to the standings right now is pretty useless.

You just have to remember that for the most part every team is within a few games of each other in May. If the Cubs truly are a really good team they'll start to separate come July and August.

It's a good thing that the Brewers rotation is held together by bits of string then.

I know. Plus it won't matter anyways, as the Astros and Cardinals are proving you should get rid of all of your pitchers and plug in journeymen and minor leaguers to make the playoffs.

[Bruno7481]

Hank "the hitting machine" Blanco.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Blanco is playing well in his limited time.

 

It might be wise to give Soto a little more rest in the coming weeks.

[TruffleShuffle]

blanco is hitting .323... catcher controversy?

So is the Cardinals, but it doesn't seem to stop them.

A Brewers fan I know was saying to me last night that McClung will be a solid number 2 or 3 starter. :roll:

Soto has killed bigger men for less.
