Heck, the D-backs are very much in the NL West race right now.

So are the Padres

[Irrelevant Dude]

Dodgers lose. Go Giants!

There's a gulf of difference between the D-backs and Padres that goes beyond a game in the standings.

Over/under 5 home runs today?

 

Kinda disappointing that it was a push.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Hammel gonna come out strong and punch the meatballs right in the teeth.

 

Cubs win, 7-2.

 

Cubs only score 8 runs this game.

 

Ye, of little faith.

Also, Cubs are 17-1 in their last 18 games against NL teams.

That Addy news is a bummer, I hope it isn't anything too serious.

I have no idea how to look this up but I'd think having 18 total strikeouts and only 1 be looking is fairly rare.

What's the deal with Russell? Is he hurt or something?

Is this a drought commentary or something else?

More of a "The D-backs have played like a team that should already be 10 games over, while the Padres have played like a team that should be 10 games under, so though they're tied, the D-backs project to finish better."
