ND is going to have exactly 1 chance at a ranked win. If by some miracle they actually win out, their schedule will probably keep them out of the playoff anyway.
Unless I'm mistaken, the 25-man you're referring to was the wild-card game roster. The Cubs haven't revealed the LDS roster. Hammel will be on it as the 4th starter replacing one of the bench players or relievers.
I'm in DVR/somehow avoid finding out what happens mode for Games 1 and 3 already in this series, and if there's a Game 4 I'll have to do it for that too. Man, having an off-hours job [expletive] sucks sometimes.
One poster over there just claimed he's only ever met one bandwagon St. Louis fan, which means he is either a) a liar or b) a hermit. When would a "bandwagon" Cardinals fan even show up? I don't want to go into the numbers and facts about how they've basically been good forever, but they've basically been good forever. That's a great point as well. Hard to jump on a bandwagon of a team that's never bad to start with.
yeah i was worried when i saw the schedule We're only as early as we are because the Dodgers are West Coast. We've gotta be the premiere game, and should get the prime time slot. We might end up with a semi-late game Monday. Like 9 pm ET or something. But our Wrigley game(s) will be at night.
Will the game times be announced today, or will they wait until Saturday to see if the ALDS games on Monday will be necessary? They will probably be announced soon with contingencies if the AL series are sweeps.
One of Denorfia, Soler, or Berry. Probably Denorfia. Got to be Denorfia unless Maddon really wants to put a premium on defense. The way Soler's power seemed to come back in September would lead me to believe he'll keep his spot.
