9/24 Cubs (Z!) @ Mets (Perez) 6:10pm The U & ESPN, XM188

[CubmanPi]

Ramirez thought he took strike two. This ump is pretty bad.

[Warren Brusstar]

i feel bad, but I want the cubs to lose. I really want to face the mets in the playoffs. Also, Sabathia, Sheets, Gallardo scares me.

 

If the Cubs win then the Mets would be tied with the Phils in the loss collumn and also hold the tie breaker. Do you really want to face the Phillies? I think that would be the worst case scenario. I don't really care if the Brewers win, I'll take a Dodgers matchup.

 

The way Myers has looked recently? Bring 'em on.

Who's a tougher matchup...phillies, brewers, or dodgers? (nlcs)

 

Phillies really good line up and pretty good pitching. The Brewers have health issues with their starting staff while their lineup is pretty good and the dodgers have a crappy line up with decent pitching.

[Mizzou]

Julian Tavarez pitching for the Braves...why does that guy still have a job?

Because he's on a journey to pitch for every MLB team? I don't know, there really isn't another logical explanation.

[Hall7810]

Bob's starting a discussion on "untuck 'em"

[Guest]

Again, please don't swear. You guys know the rules.

 

Thank you.

phillies imo

Who cares who we play first. I mean, I assume if we don't face the Phillies in the first round, we will in the second. Let's quit being scared of potential matchups and realize that WE are the team to beat.

 

 

I mostly agree, but the 5 game series lends itself to being dominated by a single starter more than a 7 gamer. Also provides a greater chance for a flukey outcome. Hamels and Santana are more of a concern than anyone the Dodgers can throw out there.

Hamels feels like an automatic L. I don't feel like that about many pitchers, either.

Manny Ramirez?

[Vinestal]

So the Marlins fired Fredi Gonzales? Why? hmph

I'd pitch around him any time someone was on base.

[manbearcub]

dumb pitching.

[17 Seconds]

Nice 0-2 pitch idiot

[Brian]

I hope Lou is at least going to let Wood get work tonight.

[third eye]

Wow, Sutcliff alluding to the overratedness of the closer position without even knowing it.

[CubmanPi]

Looks like Shark doesn't want a playoff spot either. War of attrition for the last couple places.

[17 Seconds]

So we're down to 2 good relievers again

[MasterBlaster]

Man, Shark is just falling apart at the seams these final weeks.

Didn't we beat him in the most recent series against Philly? That was the Aramis GS game, wasn't it?

I'd rather face Hamels than Santana.

 

The thought of Dempster v. Santana in a decisive Game 5 makes me cringe.

that was after he left the game.

he shut us down for 7 innings before the bullpen gave up 5 runs in .1 innings to lose the game.
