ASSUMING a brewers sweep to close out the season is a level of doom bonering I’ve never seen before. I’m oppressively pessimistic and masochistic, and even I can’t do that

 

In other news, glad to see the cubs put some god damn runs on the board

Hader in for the Brewers. Probably closes it out.

 

Good, run him into the ground trying to win the division so he has nothing left for the playoffs - the Jake Arrieta in 2015 plan (minus the wildcard game - which was amazing)

I didn’t completely expect cubs fans to be doom bonering freaks two years after winning a title but here we are

Just ignore me for being overly negative if you’d like I’m just figuring this out for whoever cares and just in case.

 

The Rockies would be lined up to start Antonio Senzatela in the NL Wild Card game. Or they could possibly go with Kyle Freeland on 3 days rest (guessing this most likely. At the very least their opponent could see him come on in relief).

 

Clayton Kershaw pitched on Monday and most likely will pitch on Saturday again making him unlikely to give the Dodgers much next Tuesday. Most like the Dodgers starter would be Rich Hill or Ross Stripling.

 

As for the Cardinals we’d likely avoid Mikolas, Flaherty and Wainright unless the Cardinals clinch before Sunday in which case they would save Flaherty for the WC game

Sure, I could see them not sweeping. They could lose the last game of the series while resting their entire lineup because they clinched the day before.

 

See, who's doom bonering?

Taking Quintana out at 74 pitches and up 4 runs in the 5th is....interesting

 

My guess: he is thinking about a potential tiebreaker game on Monday against the Brewers. If it was a 1 or 2 run game he’d keep him in but with a 4 run lead he feels comfortable enough to roll the dice

they are on the verge of sweeping a contending team on the road. thinking they might sweep a team 30 games under .500 at home in the last 3 meaningless games of that team’s season isn’t exactly crazy.

Thinking they might and assuming they definitely will are not the same thing.

Expanding on what Len was saying.

 

This is Heyward’s 9th MLB season. His worst team record is 89-73. He’s missed the postseason once. Never finished below 2nd place.

*pounding fist on table*

 

He. Just. Wins. Games.

You cannot make this horsefeathers up what just happened in the cardinals game

 

2 outs runner on first, Martinez hits a slow roller and moose throws it away, runner rounds third and is going to score easily but trips and falls and is tagged out

Okay??? That just means he's been on a lot of good teams in his career. It means nothing.

 

Mike Trout must suck by comparison right? He lacks heart or that winning attitude or something you can't quantify...
