And today's silver lining rests in the hands of Dusty Baker & Co. - bad day.

 

I think our best bet is to wait for the Rockies and Giants to bet each other up and back door it into the Wild Card.

I think our best bet is to wait for the Rockies and Giants to bet each other up and back door it into the Wild Card.

 

I think that means we actually have to win games though....so, is there a 3rd option?

[hardcorecubfan]

clap clap clap TULO!

 

imagine if the cubs had a shortstop like Tulo

 

:-(

 

Just got back from Sat/Sun. game and their cheer for him is pretty darn annoying esp. when the cubs give him 10 opportunities to bat

[RedFlash]

Screw the playoffs.

[Soul]

I can't believe they actually play the Great America happy dance music when they hit a homer.

Is that whole thing recorded, or do people really do that live?

[Soul]

is this guy really the best thing we had down there to bring up??

 

Probably, yeah.

Soto grounded out to third, 5-3

[cubstitlelives]

Geo looks awful up there.

[E.J.]

The Rockies must feel like they're playing the Nationals right now. Just easy sailing to victories.

[Soul]

Too late Fred, I think Soto got out before you could post the stats that would SAY he's going to get out.
