I'll feel better if the Cubs happened to sweep the Cards in this series, but I wouldn't get optimistic unless we strung some amazing win streak together - like the 15 games back in 2001. That, or it's a 3-game deficit in the WC for us with a series vs. Houston. I think that streak was more like 11 games. http://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/CHC/2001_sched.shtml Longest Winning Streak: 12 (May 19 to June 2) and it came immediately after an 8 game losing streak!! I think I must be confusing that with some streak by the A's around the same time? Or the Mariners - their 2001 boggled the mind.

Same deal with Aramis. My biggest fear is that sure, Dusty will leave... but not before he totally ruins our corner IFs and we wind up having to say goodbye to Kerry like with Jon Lieber.

here's the Walker interview synopsis Preach it, Todd. Say the things that everyone else on the team is afraid to say! Yeah, and good luck wherever you wind up next year... cause I doubt it's in Chicago. :(
