And now with Wainright back on the team as far as leadership, and possibly Molina rejoining the team, they are still a scary out.

Beating Pittsburgh in a one game playoff is one thing. Stringing wins together or winning in a best of five series against a formidable pitching staff with an excellent relief core is another.

This is where it all gets tough, and the Cubs are going to face a slew of great pitching from here on out.

You want to take at least one in St Louis no matter how, or who does it.

The thing is the Cards have taken it in the rear this year with injuries. That added to the NL being just plain weak ass in general. Cubs punched them around as they should have by other teams if those teams had any punch to give.

It could be close but I wouldn't be surprised if the Cubs ***** slap them back into the 80's.

I want Tor out on a short. That team needs to be put out before they get white hot and mow every one down.

I told a friend yesterday before the game that he basically thought Toronto could not be beat. I told him not to sleep on Texas.

2-0 Texas in the series. Blue Jays let that game get away. Going to be tough to come back.

Astro's have the Royals on the ropes as well.

Bluejays have been thoroughly disappointing. Was pulling for them in the AL.

They were about a foot away from a 1-1 series. The inning before they gave up the final runs. Edwin Encarnacion hit one to center that I thought was gone and it died right before the wall. It was just like Fowler hit. Baseball man. A bad day from your ace and a little unlucky and you are about to be eliminated.

I had Toronto winning it all around mid-August. If they get knocked out, I think it's wide open.

Dat batflip tho...




So, are you guys fans of the excessive batflips or no? Bam Bam has quite a cockiness to his HR's, but that Joey Bats today, that was wow! Fun though
