Story. 3 HR in the 6th. Well over 1300 feet total.

He falls down and still hits the first one 459

 

459, 505, 416

 

I want them to sweep the Dodgers in the next series

New question. If you knew the Cubs would win the World Series, who would you want to face along the way?

 

NLDS: Brewers - Cardinals fans would be so pissed the rivalry series wouldn’t include them. And we would have eliminated every division rival in the postseason besides the Reds in recent years.

NLCS: Dodgers - Would go up 2-1 on them and so many people would whine about the two biggest NL markets going 3 years in a row. And only 1 game away from 4 straight.

World Series: Yanks or Sawx. Pretty interchangeable for me.

 

I would prefer avoiding the Cards this year. I thought we were definitely better than them back in 2015, but this year the starting pitching/bullpen just seems too unreliable right now.

 

Don't get me wrong; I think we have a strong chance of reaching the WS and beating every team in the NL, but we go through really difficult stretches where the Cubs look awful for a few days.

 

NLDS: Arizona (Doubt they'll get in, but you never know)

NLCS: Dodgers or Atlanta

World Series: Oakland

We do seem to get a players rest day constantly and the pitching is getting more constitant. I like our chances as of now against anyone

Bruce “I’d use 17 pitchers a game if I could” Bochy leaves his righty in to face Cain with 1st and 2nd no out (smart), then brings in a lefty to face Yelich (also smart) then leaves that same lefty in for Aguilar (not smart) who hits a two run double.

Colorado sitting in first place on September 8th and only predicted at a 44.9% chance to make the playoffs is a pretty crazy stat this late in the season.

Walkoff win for the Tigers! Cards beginning to fade into oblivion.

 

Yeah, Cards losing again to the Tigers today. 2-0 in the 3rd. A late-season fade that has them missing the playoffs would be amazing.

Some dude named Jorge Lopez is perfect through 7 against the Twins tonight.

 

Perfect going into bottom of the 9th. Came over from the VBs in the Moustakas trade.
