A streaky offense is not a recipe for success in October. We really need to start getting some consistency.

 

You mean like we're consistently good in the games we win and consistently bad in the games we lose?

 

Like we've been consistently bad today, and two posts earlier you had questioned my prediction that the Cubs weren't going to win?

 

And if it wasn't over before, it is now.

What on earth are you talking about?

I sure am happy with mediocre pitching. Yep.

 

Yet he's one out from a quality start.

 

I can't say that I'm happy with mediocre pitching. I'm just not mad about it either. That's kind of what mediocre is.

BTW, you completely missed the point of that post.

 

When the offense is good, the Cubs typically win. When it's bad, they typically lose. (Obviously, there are outliers in both cases)...

 

They've won nearly 60% of their games. That's pretty damn consistently good.

No reason why they can't bump that up to 80%.

In a pennant race, mediocrity steams me up a little. I guess we're just different like that.

Exactly. Sure would be nice to not have a mediocre pitcher every 5 days, but when the other pitchers are dominating, I can't complain about 6 IP 3 ER. In fact the Pirates would have to have that performance once a week.
