Would it make me happy? Yes. Must we win the series to insure the Cubs make the playoffs? Obviously, no. There is a lot of baseball left to play. They probably do need to win the series if they want Cubs fans to retain the somewhat positive feeling about the season into next week. I know it's only April but c'mon these are games you have to start to win or regert it later down the line. It'll be Interesting to see What Marshall can do in game 1. It'll be a great post if he comes out and pitches a good game.
I agree. It's like ground hog day for the past three years. But then again no team is going to run away and hide in April this year, and if we can get back wood and prior and that's a big IF, I honestly feel we can run away with this division...
Thats why it was pretty important for Z to get us a win today. Yes today was huge. We really needed our ace to close out the Reds series with a series win.
exactly. If we're .500+ after May 1, I'll be happy. I agree with you. This whole division will be bunched together all year long. It's going to be a dog fight! I'm hoping if and when we do get Prior and Wood we can go on a run and win this division.
No...i'm thinking 6-5. We'll give up one more run here soon and then score 2 in the bottom of the ninth that would have tied it...but didn't because of the extra run we gave up. LOL! Yep it's like a script isn't it? Let's hope this year Cubs re-write the ending...
