10/11 - NLDS Game 4: Cubs (Lackey) @ Giants (Moore) 7:40 CT FS1/670

[jersey cubs fan]

The last seven playoff seasons, the Cubs have had s three game losing streak. That is a little noteworthy

[UMFan83]

Jesse Rogers says the Cubs will have their "regular lineup" tonight with Javy at 2B, but not sure who is catching.

 

So guessing

 

Fowler

Bryant

Rizzo

Zobrist

Russell

Heyward

Baez

Contreras

Lackey

 

Would love to see Javy and Willy higher up in the order though.

I guess there's just no room left in this world for a man and his useless stats.

I'm back to Friday levels of nervous. I had gotten really comfortable after about the midpoint of game 2.

Yeah last night even when the score was 3-1 I was carefree, playing with my kids, playing some guitar, etc while watching. I wasn't nervous because I felt like I'd seen this game 80+ times this year, Cubs get a multiple run lead, pitching shuts them down and sucks the life out of the opponent. When Jake started getting squared up in the 5th inning it felt like a completely different game all of the sudden.

so the last 7 times the cubs have been eliminated in the playoffs, it was on a 3 game skid?

 

well horsefeathers curses live

[David]

DAMN IT RAISIN

[seanimal]

may our opponent accept tonight's defeat with great honor, and may we be merciful in our victory

[David]

rossy out of nowhere.

[minnesotacubsfan]

ROSS??

[USSoccer]

Ross, huh?

 

I guess Maddon wasn't impressed with Contreras being a perpetual heart attack behind the plate last night.

Same here. I really started getting nervous when the announcers kept talking about how the Giants hadn't scored on the Cubs bullpen all year. I was like, "Why the horsefeathers would they say that?"

because they already mentioned even year giants

[USSoccer]

At least Maddon isn't trying to outthink himself with the OF, and we'll have Soler and Contreras off the bench if needed against their parade of LHRP.

[UMFan83]

Yeah not sure about Ross with the way Willy has been hitting lately and Lackey doesn't seem to have any problem with him catching his starts. But whatever lets do this.

Still exhausted, but my feet won't stop moving.

[minnesotacubsfan]

may our opponent accept tonight's defeat with great honor, and may we be merciful in our victory

 

this is where you and I clearly disagree. i want Posey's head rolling down the 1st base line showering the crowd in blood after Soler had decapitated him at home plate while taking home from a Addison Russel single to left giving the Cubs a 10-0 lead in the 9th.

 

 

horsefeathers being nice

Oh, I'm not scared. I'm still confident. I'm just not comfortable.

Just a little more flowery language, and you've got a Sulley post here.

True, they had already exhausted their Madbum is a god and even year magic stories.
