  1. Rizzo is proud of that TOOTBLAN.
  2. Some random 28 year old rookie with 10 PAs just hit a two run shot for the Brewers. What’s that? It was a Padre who hit it? I didn’t know that was allowed against the Brewers.
  3. Or the Cubs pass up the Cardinals but also get passed up by Milwaukee for the division. I could live with that if the Nats got the other WC. I wouldn’t be happy with it but at least the Cards would be out.
  4. We are getting a Cubs-Brewers WC game The pessimist in me has thought for weeks that we’re going to be 2 games up going into the St Louis series and get swept. I could also see us winning tonight, taking 2 of the first 3 this weekend, lead late on Sunday only to blow the game.
  5. Somehow get to the top of the order, please.
  6. I, for one, don’t believe not winning the next 5 straight keeps them from the playoffs. If we win tomorrow and win 3 of 4 from St Louis, we’re either tied or a game up on St Louis going into three games with Pittsburgh. That puts us in decent shape.
  7. Well at least the Cards are going to lose. Would be nice to only be one back with Scherzer facing them tomorrow though. If we win tomorrow and they lose it’s fine.
  8. Top of the order up. Let’s get that run back.
  9. Hit to the pitcher comes back to burn us.
  10. First batter up and the Pads give up the lead. Brewers have two hits and they’re both homers.
  11. You might have too much faith in professional sports. Yeah, if he somehow manages to not get much jail time (hopefully hugely unlikely), I honestly would be kinda stunned if some team didn't sign him given how good he's been, unfortunately. horsefeathers, I wish I could say for sure I'd think the Cubs would never do such a thing, but... I’d be surprised if a team signed him. The kid from Oregon State would have been a top pick in the draft a couple years ago but didn’t even get drafted due to child molestation when he was 15.
  12. Haven’t done it often this year but that was some nice Screw the Closer work by the Cubs.
  13. Well it had been like 4 PAs since he’d doubled so I guess he was due.
  14. I think the Padres get 1 or 2 games in this series, Reds and Rockies both take at least 1 from them too. IIRC, the Padres had their worst starter of the 4 going today.
  15. Yeah, depending on exactly how long he’s out, it seems like Jesse heard “likely season ending” and implied it was some terrible injury when season ending is 2 weeks. Of course, it is our medical staff so who the hell knows.
  16. [tweet] [/tweet] So maybe just 2-3 weeks?
  17. With our medical staff, even amputation can’t be ruled out at this point.
  18. For context: Suarez' 2019 stats: .271/.350/.580/.930, 47 HR 100 RBI (611 PAs) Suarez' 2019 vCubs: .381/.423/.825/1.248, 8 HR 19 RBI (71 PAs) This reminded me of something. I think they mentioned it during the broadcast yesterday but I looked up the full numbers. The Cubs, as a team, for the three game set over the weekend hit .419/.496/.872/1.368.
  19. Mets lose so they’re 4 back of us and the Phillies are 4.5 back with a game in hand. So barring one of those two getting really hot (Mets do play Col, Cin, Mia and Atl so they could) the WC will come down to whichever two NLC teams don’t win the division and the Nats.
