Smyly in appearances of less than 2 IP this year: 10.2 IP, 2 R, 17/6 K/BB, 1 HR

Hopefully that is where he stays next year. If multiple injuries force him into the rotation, so be it, but that shouldn't be part of the plan at all.

The Rockies' new pitcher is Victor Vodnik and I am now convinced Putin has infiltrated Major League Baseball

we will rise from the ashes like a phoenix, on the wings of Friday Cubs

[itisallpartoftheplan]

1 down, 2 to go this weekend 

[UMFan83]

yay we win.

go 5-3 the rest of the way and I think they have a 50-50 shot of getting in

If they go 5-3, at least 2 of these things needs to happen to eliminate the Cubs:

-Marlins go 6-3 or better

-Reds go 6-2 or better

-Diamondbacks go 4-5 or better

I'm a huge Brewers fan all of a sudden

Stroman starting tomorrow per Ross.  

This and Monday's off day gives them probably a lot of options for how they can configure their rotation the rest of the season.  Stroman can pitch Friday against the Brewers and then in Game 2 of a potential Wild Card round.  Steele would miss the WC round unless he's not needed on Sunday.

Maybe Ross is smarter than we give him credit for.  Ross trashes the Pirates, giving them motivation that allows them to beat the Reds and Marlins.  Genius!

Sorry the guy on the team we cheer for hit a home run for our team. 

You would have needed to be on the Cubs board on Prosportsdaily to fully understand WCWW. 🙂

Arenado and Willson were put on the IL ending their season. Annoying because they finish the season with 3 against the Reds

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Brewers put up a 12 spot on the Marlins in the 2nd

Brewers came through today

David Ross was right about the pirates. Gave up 2 runs because they couldn’t turn an easy double play. Then gave up a 2 out 2 run homer in the 6th.

They heard that and put up 2 runs to take the lead again

David Ross and I: Master motivators of other teams haha

Pirates have the bases loaded 0 outs in the 9th up 6-5. Hope they don’t Cub it

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Screw the closer, Pirates.
