Has anyone made sure to protect Bregman from champagne getting into the infected areas of his face?

[gflore34]

Does anyone think Bregman will be back, for, at least, DH duties in the PS?

I think you mean affected?  I'd really hope he doesn't also have an infection.

there's been talk about him playing in Boston, so I'm assuming he'll play in the wild card round

Is there another team in baseball that could have absorbed the equivalent of the Cubs' injuries and still make the PS? 

Did you see Counsell call in the medical staff and thank them all before popping the corks

I did not though, how can blame him?  It's been a year with freakish amount of injuries, way above the norm, they certainly deserve some praise.

Great to see them win, clinch, and PCA 40/40 in final home game...

Get through Boston and then hopefully go on a hot streak for a month 😊

he removed his eye with his unwashed fingers before the celebrations began. 

he'll be fine.

Take as many spins of the wheel as you can, hope never dies!

12-8 Diamondbacks, Rockies have a hot hitter up with a runner on 2nd, how sweet would Cubs-style implosion of their bullpen be?  Man. thought that was gone off the bat.

Always loved watching locker room celebrations since I was a kid, though back then there weren't many Chicago Sports celebrations 😂

Ha, in my head I was thinking "dont get those wounds infected".  Didn't quite word it correctly.

The alcohol will disinfect the wounds, he's fine.

[BKHoo]

I was going to say - you could do a lot worse than alcohol on wounds.

Why are we arguing about how historically futile the Cubs have been within an hour of clinching a playoff spot?

[NorthsideAvenger]

Thank goodness the NL MVP got it done. I also saw that of all the players in the 40/40 club, PCA has the strongest season by fWAR (10.7). Bonds is the closest at 9.2. Geez, I knew PCA was having one hell of season but this good? Holy smokes. 

Good to see the Cubs do remember how to win a game. Props to the pitchers (not name Cabrera) for showing up. Now offense it's your turn to wake up.

Is it possible Boyd, Palencia , Zeferjahn and even, Webb are starting to get a little warm at the right time?  Is that allowed for healthy Cubs' pitchers?

We want Arizona to win now. Love to see Phillies lose today so Az can stay interested as long as possible.

I was 6 months old for the NLCS but horsefeathers them regardless.

Didn't watch the games but, I'm certain they were carrying on as if they won the WS the previous two games.  Most especially the second game with Alcantara going for the save - they did the same maneuver vs. the Diamondbacks.  So, yeah, horsefeathers them in ear.
