9/9 Brewers (Anderson) @ Cubs(Montgomery) 3:05 CSN MLBN

[Perd]

Yeah, bringing Grimm in, there, is a real head scratcher. The short leash for Monty, was clearly Joe not wanting to let the game get away, so why bring in that arsonist? It's like they won't be happy until they make a playoff team as unenjoyable as possible.

[Schwarber Fan]

Hopefully we have a comfortable division lead when we go into Milwaukee for 4 at the end of the month.

 

Someone on the non-Cubs game thread was calling me an idiot but I still think the Cardinals win the division. I stopped listening to probability sites when the election happened.

 

We have the best team on paper, but when they've been bad this year, they've been brutally bad.

 

Drawing a comparison of sports odds to a political election is just nonsense.

[BigSlick]

Jesus Christ what happened here?

 

Can I blame Justin Grimm? It's good for me to blame him

You do realize what a probability is right? If the Cardinals make up a 3/4 game lead with 19 games left with an inferior team that qualifies as fairly improbable even though it's not impossible

I blame Monty and Grimm equally. Monty was awful and couldn't throw strikes. Grimm could (sometimes) throw strikes but they were put into play in places the Cubs weren't positioned.

You're not crazy at all.

 

On an unrelated note, please, please, please bet me on this.

I forgot you can't make a joke on this forum. But I still believe in Cardinal voodoo

[UMFan83]

Jon Jay in his last 30 games has a .643 OPS. But for some reason he remains the everyday leadoff hitter while guys like Happ and Schwarber play sporadically

[UMFan83]

Damn almost a run. Good effort getting to 3rd base

[David]

So amped about almora being in the lineup against a righty. His speed and range really paid off in cf on that bloop to shallow center earlier.

[David]

I'm both sick of Maddon and fully aware that there's probably not another manager I'd actually rather have.

[UMFan83]

But Duke told me the Brewers offense sucked. He showed us numbers and everything. It's almost like he has some sort of jinxing effect.

The dialectic of baseball managers

[UMFan83]

Guys we might actually get our 20 run game today

[TMan92]

Well the Brewers run differential is looking better now.

Do you know what probability means?

Hey man, gotta set the table for a sick cleanup hitter like Zobrist.

[UMFan83]

If we don't score in the last 3 innings it will be the 5th time in the last 7 games we score 0 or 1 runs

[Perd]

Certainly not hitting the panic button. But it would be nice to win tomorrow.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

the words vaunted and cobs are making comebacks

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I hope nobody gets mad at me for this......

 

It's September and a big series. At home. Defending World Series champions. I'm annoyed to be getting punked like this.

 

Win tomorrow and stop this nonsense.

 

Thank you.

[BigSlick]

Jesus Christ Cobs don't do irreparable harm to your run differential now

This horsefeathers should not ever happen

I appreciate your understanding in this time of need.

[Sammy Sofa]

If the Cubs collapse I'm genuinely worried it'll push Duke over the edge. Those cruel bastards better not break that sweet bastard's innocent heart!
