Cubs (Gausman) vs Padres (Pivetta): Wild Card Game 2, 9:00pm CST

[PeanutPunch33]

lol they traded a top 50 prospect for a guy that will never end up even pitching for the team in the playoffs… or at least make an impact

I know, and that alone should be a fire-able offense. 

[Brian707]

I think Padres take out the Brewers 

[cl smooth]

Same could be said of all of us watching these two horsefeathers games

That’s not true. They got 3 hits in the final game against Boston with RISP.

This year, yes. Holmes will be back next year.

[Irrelevant Dude]

My kingdom for an extra base hit.

Jason Adam been to the Cade Horton school of pitching mechanics.

All the assets traded for 5 guys, and they only use 1 guy for 3 innings so far.

Really?  I'd rather keep Peterson for cheaper.

Give the dude a break. He might have the only Cubs RBI in this entire series 🤣

How about both?  There's your #1 and 2 starters.

[UMFan83]

At this point just go down quietly so their pen arms are rested for Milwaukee

Did you mean the Cubs' pen?😄

I kind of want Milwaukee to win now.  Pour more salt into the wound.

You think he'll pick up his option of 12 mil or Hoyer will make a desperate extension offer to get him to stay

I guess Bob didn’t count that game

[Irrelevant Dude]

It's midnight on the East Coast.  Does that count as playing in October?

[ILMindState]

Oh so now we use our best starter 

[abuck1220]

i’m calling for some wild horsefeathers like a game tying ph 3-run 9th inning homer by Ramirez off miller and then the cubs losing in B9 on a walk, wild pitch, bloop single. 

[chibears55]

Gotta get Peterson in this game so hes not wasted

No, because it's 9PM here in CA.😅

I have no problem cheering for the Padres here on out. Anyone but the Brewers or Dodgers is good with me. I always liked the Braves since they were on TBS when I was a kid.
