As much as we can use pitching help they have to add bats to have any chance in October.

I bet at least 25% of Brewer runs come with some help in the form of walks and errors.

If you play good defense and don't walk guys the Brewers will struggle to score more than 3 runs.

That one hung up there forever.  Seemed like Harris should have went for it.  Given Contreras was the trailing runner it's not a given he scores if he doesn't come up with it.

I'd be shocked if the Dodgers and Braves didn't face off in the NLCS this year. Our team as constructed now can't compete in October with these two teams. It's them two and everyone else in the NL.

Unless he's hurt pinch running for Vaughn right here was sheer stupidity.

Murphy baffles me with such poor in game decision making 

He has to know that Vaughn is a premium bat

That move is either greedy or insane

Chicago Cubs Baseball GIF by Wisconsin Sportscenter

Completely melted down in the 8th inning

Had a 5-0 lead earlier & lost 8-6

According to Cubs Reddit - it’s Craig’s fault

Aren't we competing with the Braves right now?

In the literal sense, yes, but don't act like you don't know what I mean.

I mean both teams are throwing their aces, and these games have been very competitive. Why wouldn't we be competitive with them in a postseason series?

Because both of the Braves and Dodgers are clearly more complete teams than us and don't have as many holes as we do to for us to win a best of five, much less a best of seven. This isn't hard.

Dodgers, I'll give you. But the Braves? We score more runs per game than they do and have better pitching than they do (11.5 fWAR vs. 7.6 fWAR). 

What are you talking about?

There you go spouting “facts” again … making your point with actual statistical proof rather than emotion

We've only scored 16 more runs than them coming into this game. As for the pitching remark, I'm not even going to justify that with a response.
