IST: Cubs vs. Brewers

[Diehardfan]

Two words: Meaning. Less.

Exactly. While not official, this was decided a month ago. There are three much more important celebrations to get to.

I turned on the game for grins just in time to see Almora tie it with a HR. Now I want to win this game. I think I have a problem.

And speaking of Almora...getting picked off rounding a bag. Hopefully it's overturned.

Going by their recent starts Lackey and Hammel are securing the no.4 and possibly not making the playoff roster spots respectively..

If I was one of the unlucky bunch that actually bought tickets to this game...I'd be pissed.

Maddon could send up Zobrist, Bryant and Rizzo to PH in the 9th....that would probably appease the masses at Wrigley today.

 

[chibears55]

Why would you say that? The best team in baseball just got beat by a team of scrubs tonight.

Because unless Lackey shuts them down, it was going to be a struggle for these guys to put up runs..

Lackey is pitching the playoffs. Its the whole reason they got him and they probably trust him over Hendricks and Arrieta.

I didn't say he wasnt, he the no.4 guy
Hammel either a bullpen guy or won't be on roster, at least for NLDS

I imagine he's gotta be pissed....timing is everything, I guess.

 

[Omeletpants]

Hmmmmmm playoffs......maybe Coghlan replaces 4-3 who then replaces him for defense in the 8th inning?

 

[chibears55]

Lets get a walk off and then go Celebrate

Get someone up there who can drive one into the wind and out

Ball 4! Baez needs to work hard on that in the off season. He gets in swing mode.

I'm pretty sure Torres didn't throw a single strike in that AB....Javy just refused to be walked. Not sure being aggressive is way to go in that situation.

Chapman breaking out the change up there
That just not fair..lol

That was some good pitching by Chapman
Used the mix bag instead of just firing fastballs
That'll keep batters guessing

They are lined up for Lester, Lackey, Arretta, Hendricks.
