horsefeathering Hunter Pence.

A friend asked me the other day if I'd rather have Chapman or Lackey get the last out and I said Lackey without much thought. In addition to the obvious, it would probably mean the clincher is a lower stress game. I feel like Joe would bring in the rested closer in pretty much any scenario where the Cubs are up 1 or 2.

9/2 Giants (Suarez) @ Cubs (Lester), 1:20 PM, dunno

You're up tomorrow regardless of today's outcome. -
Soccer schedule has been finalized. 10th: Hearts vs Hamilton 14th: Spurs vs Monaco at Wembley 18th: Spurs vs Sunderland Pretty excited to see Wembley. Never been in a stadium that big before.

Last year's four-game sweep also started with a 5-4 victory on a Thursday night.
-
I'll take a repeat of last year's series at Wrigley, please.
-
About damn time.
-
Stop fouling off, Mercer. Just swing and miss.
-
So two days in a row max for Chapman from now on.
-
Strong work, Travis.
-
After a rare day without a hit (for the last 10 days, at least), Heyward picks up another 2 hits tonight.
-
Andrelton Simmons.

I enjoyed the one they mentioned during the first game of the Colorado series which was the Cubs starting lineup that day was earning less combined than 28 players this year (had to look up the exact number). I also don't know how that factors in signing bonuses and it doesn't include Dex's $5M buyout for next year. Lineup was Dex, KB, Rizzo, Soler, Russell, Szczur, Contreras, Javy and Hendricks.

His dog must have gotten skunked again.

Went to Pitch Talks in SF last night and it was a pretty enjoyable evening. Jonah Keri, Dave Cameron, Eno Sarris and Grant Brisbee were among the writers there and Keri also interviewed Jon Miller and Giants GM Bobby Evans. Eno was quite intoxicated as was Ray Ratto, who was more enjoyable and entertaining then I expected him to be. They've got one in Chicago in a couple weeks and I'd recommend going.

Is that definitely what he said lol? just watched it again and it was actually "open your [expletive] eyes, mfer". it's at 2:24:45 if you have mlb.tv Just went and looked and yeah, that's absolutely what he said.
-
If you want to face less of Kershaw, you should hope the Dodgers are a wild card team. He'd probably start the WC game and then would only to be able to pitch once in the NLDS (like Jake last year).
-
Pittsburgh still has 18 games against the Reds, Brewers and Phillies plus 6 with St. Louis. They've got plenty of time to make up for the Cubs hopefully sweeping them this week.
-
Corey Seager has the most home runs in a season ever by a Dodgers shortstop.
-
Can't believe Pederson didn't get tossed for that.
-
Have to pay attention to who is running and where he fielders are set up. If Javy does that, he doesn't even look to second.
-
Too close to overturn. Have to go to first there.
-
And on cue, another pop up.
-
Too many pop ups today.
-
KB-Rizzo-Zobrist coming up? Time for some runs. Or at least a run.
