So we’re a near lock to play at SD now right? Only way we get WC1 is with a win and 3 SD losses. And we only drop to 3 with a loss and two Philly wins.
-
Just forfeit on Sunday. Fly to Chicago and wait to see where we play on Tuesday.
-
Send the Iowa Cubs to play that game.
-
Getting ahead of myself here but if the Cubs lose both games and SD wins today, we’d be locked into being on the road. Is there a penalty if they just tell MLB to F off we’re not flying to Tampa because the game doesn’t matter?
-
Then MLB should tell San Diego and Philly to fuck right off and worry about their own games. I mean, how is it fair that we now have to travel more than we otherwise would have? Chicago to Boston to Tampa to Chicago/San Diego.
-
Decent chance we host though, right, even if it's more likely we're on the road? We have the tiebreaker and we're playing a team with no motivation to win, while for at least one game, Arizona has all the motivation to win. If SD and Phi both win tomorrow, that equation changes. But if Arizona wins tomorrow, they still have motivation on Saturday, doubly so if Philly loses tomorrow.
-
If I’m remembering right, yesterday they won 4-1, went 1-1 with RISP, hit 2 solo HRs that both came with 2 outs while Philly went like 0-13 with RISP.
-
For sure I think Ari will have to try tomorrow. They’re 3 back of Philly and they have the tiebreaker. So they’ll either be 2 or 3 back of Philly anfter today. Ideally both Philly and SD lose tonight so Ari is chasing both.
-
White Sox about to clinch a playoff spot. They’ll be 82-77 which means Hou and Tex can only tie them. Both Hou and Chi have the tiebreaker over Texas so a 3 way tie would mean Texas is out.
-
Nico!
-
Nice start, Ian! Please get him home, Cubs.
-
Seiya!
-
0-8.
-
0-7.
-
Another RISP. Can they get a hit?
-
2-30 now in the series.
-
Yeah I get wanting to keep Boston’s home game but just move the things so we can play a normal schedule.
-
If the 2026 Cubs have taught me anything, it’s that they generally have a great ability to win the RD battle in a series while still losing 2 of 3. So Cubs by 10+ today.
-
You know I was thinking i wouldn't mind Kelly just taking all the way so he doesn't GIDP.
-
Without looking it up that sounds right since we have the tiebreaker over both.
-
That should get overturned.
-
Yes it would be very surprising if they missed the playoffs. They have to lose out, which includes 3 against a Boston team that will be resting guys, and Arizona has to win out. It won’t happen.
-
With our luck, sprained finger out 4 weeks will be announced tomorrow.
