    As an example of "delusional fanboy", we have RedVerbs here today.

    Haven't you heard? The NL West bandwagon is hooked on the Rockies now.

    Thanks to the Mariners loss earlier today, Seattle is the first team officially eliminated from a division championship.

    Uhh, it's not out of the ordinary for teams to place most of their players on waivers. Doesn't mean a whole lot.

    Behind the Angels, Brewers and Cardinals, and tied with the Phillies. Cubs remaining home series: Phillies, Brewers, Cardinals, and Astros.

    From the "What a difference a year makes" department: Currently, the Houston Astros are 66-66. If they have this record at this time last year, they're 1.5 games behind the first place 68-65 Cubs. This year, they're 16 games out.

    All the Cubs need to do is split the Phillies series to equal their win total from last year. In August.
  8. bukie
    So, the Cubs are 33 games over .500 for the first time since 1945. Which is absurd.
  9. bukie
    Marquis probably deserves some credit for getting through five scoreless, especially after Zambrano and Lilly were unable to do so the previous two nights.
  10. bukie
    Well, it could be the opposing pitcher. Would that be better?
  11. bukie
    I'm hoping the Cubs can push across a run or two, Marquis can be fast and efficient for 5 innings, and then torrential rain. Too much?
  12. bukie
    Marquis gets Morgan on a strikeout. Gameday pops up an advertisement for "One a day".
  13. bukie
    Haven't decided whether I want a quick 5 inning game, or a slow, cancelled game. Depends on the Pirates offense today against Marquis.
  14. bukie
    Yeah, there's a reason the 1984 Cubs finished the year 96-65, and it wasn't because they only scheduled them for 161 games on the year.
  15. bukie
    Am I wrong in hoping this is a rain-shortened 5-inning 5-0 Cub win?
  16. bukie
    Question for you, would you rather see the Twins and White Sox in the playoffs, or the Twins and Red Sox in the playoffs?
  17. bukie
    So much for the Cubs giving up the least amount of runs in the league.
  18. bukie
    I dunno, I think the 13-5 game was worse pitched. :)
  19. bukie
    Consecutive winning seasons for the second time in 6 years. :)
  20. bukie
    Conventional thinking reigns supreme.

    I'd really enjoy an AL playoffs of the White Sox, Twins, Rays and Angels. Some fresh faces in a constant sea of Boston and New York media darlings. Plus, I think Boston is the most dangerous team in the AL.
  22. bukie
    Got a feeling since the Saturday game is national, the Cubs/Phillies series is certain to have plenty of mention of the instant replay. Fortunately, Wrigley isn't a very necessary replay stadium with the baskets.
  23. bukie
    I hadn't noticed this, but thanks to this weekend, the Cubs have actually allowed the fewest runs in the NL along with scoring the most. 2nd overall in scoring in the majors, 3rd overall in runs allowed in the majors.
  24. bukie
    Yeah, from this point on I doubt they outpace 1945 unless they go undefeated in September.
  25. bukie
    did i miss like a whole month of baseball or something? you are right, it's not a lock. Only 89% certainty according to BP. http://www.baseballprospectus.com/statistics/ps_odds.php The Cubs are pretty close and show no signs of letup. They are pounding the teams the bad teams as you should when you are in 1st place. Depending on how much Yeti has been drinking, he may have actually missed a whole month of baseball and still thinks the Brewers and Cubs are tied, though. :)
