10/1 GAME 163 Brewers (Chacin) @ Cubs (Q) 12:05p CST ESPN

[UMFan83]

I hate this team. I hate a Cubs playoff team with a ton of likable guys. What is wrong with me?

[SchwarbersDong]

Is there any scenario/possibility that Maddon is not retained this offseason?

[NotSoSober]

Soft contact. Don't even bother to use another reliever

[TMan92]

Soft contact

[UMFan83]

Vaunted Cubs

[abuck1220]

there's that patented soft contact we've all come to know and love.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

horsefeathers Joe. horsefeathers Kintzler. horsefeathers everything.

[gobigred]

meh good for Milwaukee I guess. They dont have much else going on up there and some new blood in the playoffs isnt the worst thing

[imb]

the chavez find is a net-negative because the same group of big brains also though trading for kintzler was a good idea

[Sammy Sofa]

It's so terrible that they have to play more bad baseball tomorrow.

[weis21]

i cannot fathom how a brandon horsefeathering kintzler was a pitcher joe thought he'd like to pitch there. horsefeathering just leave in randy

[Old Style]

[abuck1220]

maddon is trash and i hate him.

[BigSlick]

I can’t even be that mad at Maddon to be honest. The dudes just can’t hit

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Everyone just keep your heads up. It didn't work out today.

 

Go Cubs.

[Gmoney08]

Add Harper / Drop Maddon

 

Hope for better health next year.

[UMFan83]

Is there any scenario/possibility that Maddon is not retained this offseason?

 

If I was betting I'd say that's an easy no. But I wouldnt completely rule out Theo privately stewing all season about the same things were griping about and deciding that we need to go another direction.

[abuck1220]

well that was generous of the brewers

[Brian]

maybe next year, after being burned by it 2 years in row they will actually add good relievers at the deadline.

[abuck1220]

well that was generous of the brewers

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Always good to use your worst pitcher to preserve a 1 run lead. Even though we wouldn’t score to tie it regardless.

[Sammy Sofa]

Look, the Brewers still have...*checks watch*...about 20 minutes to finally start to fade away.

[Old Style]

Why is Braun running there?

[TMan92]

I can’t even be that mad at Maddon to be honest. The dudes just can’t hit

 

Solo dong Cubs today.

Look, the Brewers still have...*checks watch*...about 20 minutes to finally start to fade away.

 

I have a feeling that the 9th inning is going to be when they finally hit the tough stretch of their schedule.
