  1. How is a cold streak "imploding?' He has literally no hits, though a bit of hard contact? Still not encouraging, and he hasn't driven the ball all game. He struggles at times on the road, and going back to the final week of the season he's in one of those periods. It's not like he's falling apart out there. It's melodramatic nonsense. Ski's title line should just read "melodramatic nonsense".
  2. Less than 2 innings in, and the only players without runs, hits, or RBI are Bryant and Rizzo.
  3. I know we've been spoiled by Arrieta, but occasionally pitchers allow a run.
  4. Looks like the Cubs will have to score runs to win the game.
  5. A master of disguise. Dana Carvey-esque, really.
  6. I'm just surprised he went for the long con like that.
  7. I wasn't expecting the Cards fans to be that worried that quickly.
  8. So if the Cubs manage to win the first two games, do they go with Hammel for game three? Or do you keep Jake on normal rest no matter what?
  9. 1. Arrieta 2. Lester 3. Lackey 4. Hendricks ? This is correct.
  10. I have a feeling because your asking that the Cubs are both of these. But if I didn't get that feeling, my guesses would be 1. Cardinals and 2. Pirates Cubs and Cubs is the answer.
  11. 3. What are the top 4 starters in this series by fWAR?
  12. Let's play trivia! 1.Which team led the NL in starting pitcher fWAR? 2.Which team led the NL in bullpen pitcher fWAR?
  13. One of Denorfia, Soler, or Berry. Probably Denorfia.
  14. Because if anything deserves to follow up the idiotic "La Stella has no business being on the roster" rhetoric, it's the "Ross has no business being on the roster" rhetoric.
  15. Of course, now next time Jake throws inside, a Pirate leans into it and Jake is gone.
  16. I thought reverse splits meant that lefties had a tougher time against Cole.
  17. Sure, it doesn't always reward the best teams or put the best teams in the best positions to win, but no playoff does. If the best team winning is all you want, then just hand a trophy to the Cardinals and be done with it.
  18. looking at the records of all of these teams and then seeing the cubs as a road team in the wild card game makes me mildly irate. Just because the 95-67 Royals have home field advantage throughout the playoffs and the 97-65 Cubs can't have home field advantage in any round?
  19. One game feels a lot more playoff like than 0.
  20. Season over. ...after seeing it so many times in game threads, I just wanted to do that once.
  21. Also, I know the Cards stopped trying a week ago, but the Cubs ended the season just 3 games out of first place, which is the closest they'd been since May.
