Love that they included Polanco falling down and going boom.

 

I do not get tired of watching that. I feel bad for him, but I laugh and laugh every time.

 

Absolutely, especially the "stanky leg" version.

So I was just looking ahead at the playoff schedule, and Game 4 of the World Series is at the NL park on Halloween (and a Saturday).

 

If things are going the way we want to... holy crap will Wrigleyville be a complete [expletive] show (as if a World Series game could be any crazier). How many Marty McFly's would there be?

The Predictolator (or w/e it's called) guy was on with Mully and Hanley this morning. Said their model has the Cubs winning this series 60% of the time and that the Cubs won the WS the second most times in their simulations...I think he said that was before Toronto lost yesterday.

Looks like fangraphs updates their playoff probabilities, and they currently have the Cubs chances of beating the Cards at 53.2%, their NLCS chances at 25.1%, and World Series 13.2%.

 

I am incredibly excited and anxious. I think my heart needs a 5 run lead after the first and for Jake to cruise for the rest of the game.

 

Go Cubs!

bernstein is saying manny has been working really closely with soler and baez lately as pet projects

I wish I'd have recorded the conversations I overheard at work this morning. The levels of self-delusion Cardinals fans can reach never ceases to amaze me.

 

"We just need Wacha and Wainwright healthy at the same time"

 

"Bryant reminds me of Mark Reynolds. He'll be a washout, watch!"

 

"Give Heyward the $100 million, we really need his BAT"

 

"A healthy Adams woulda creamed 'em!" (to be fair, dude who said it just drives a forklift)

 

 

Noticeably absent:

 

" Matheny was totally and completely de-pantsed. He was handed a stacked team and a loaded farm years ago and has proven over and over again his inability to manage a roster or his bullpen. He's the Cardinals' Dusty Baker."

is the delusional part of the heyward comment the part where he only gets $100M?

The delusional part is thinking his offense is worth $100 million.

Dude is REAL likely to be worth well more than that in the next 3-4 seasons alone (and probably will just need the first 3).

Let's move that talk to the offseason thread and keep this one about the awesomeness that is the Cubs.
