it's too bad you weren't in the dugout to tell them that. i doubt it crossed their minds. It's too bad you aren't in the dugout to keep them entertained in extras with your sarcasm and sharp wit.
-
This is just stupid. And they had every chance to avoid it last inning. Just score a damn run with the bases loaded and nobody out.
-
The Nats have to just be loving this.
-
Obviously Jimmy was going to look like vintage Big Sweat that inning. Why wouldn't he?
-
I mean, I wouldn't give a crap and neither would most of us, but it'd be talked about all week and CC would be criticized by every talking head out there for taking away from the integrity of the game and blah blah blah. He's doing about everything within his power to get this game over with while still avoiding that scenario.
-
Win or lose, this series has been a pretty piss poor finish to the regular season. I hope they can find whatever magic they had found for most of September when they head to Washington on Tuesday or it's going to be a short visit to the postseason.
-
On to the 11th. We are really doing this?
-
For all the important decisions this year that CC declined to have them review and he asks them to throw on the headphones now.
-
Just send Jacob Nottingham out to pitch the 10th so we can go home.
-
I'd like Moose or Hiura not to come up gimpy running to 1st in the 10th inning of a meaningless game. 90 is just a number.
-
Of course he works out of it.
-
I have no idea what happened to the career of Taylor Williams. Dude is brutal.
-
Or balk twice. Just flush this series down the toilet and move onto Tuesday, don't let there be extras.
-
Well. If someone tosses an inning and throws 15 or fewer pitches they should be good by Tuesday Part of my point was that we're going to be using pitchers we won't be planning on carrying on Tuesday. No point even in a 3-2 game to use a playoff needed pitcher to preserve the save for a meaningless game.
-
Well you can start to solve the 25 man playoff roster today at least for the WC game. Just begin by removing every pitcher who is pitching today.
-
Well under the old format we wouldn't even be in. So as WC2 it's good to just have a chance.
-
Major props to you if this ends up being right. But I think the Cubs are probably almost all in the offseason mentally at this point. Probably ready to finish this up and start packing.
-
What if it's an 8 run difference in the 3rd?
-
Yep. Not going to get lightning to strike a 3rd time. We had our chances. Winning today likely means nothing. Let's make sure we win Tuesday. I’m somewhat strangely at peace with the Brewers not flying to St. Louis for a division championship game. I guess if they lose the Wild Card game I’ll probably feel differently, but right now I’m on board with just getting guys healthy and ready for the Wild Card game on Tuesday. If we win on Tuesday then to me yesterday's loss goes from painful to almost meaningless. If we lose....well, let's hope we don't.

I know you are thinking this way, but I can't see any scenario where the Brewers don't play to try to win this. Both games are happening at the same time, and the Cards' bullpen has been far from spotless lately. I suspect the Cubs/Cards game will be close, at least early on. I'm hoping that if the Brewers get some of the lesser guys in to pitch, it's because they are up 8 runs. Craig will know up to the second what is going on with the Cards. If you're locked in a 1-1 battle in the 6th and the Cubs are getting pounded in the 6th, you're not playing the odds at that point in looking to Tuesday? I mean, you have to. Craig is an analytical guy, he will know the percentages. You can't sit there and pull out all the stops to win a close game that has a 10% chance of ultimately meaning anything. You're still throwing all of Hader/Pomeranz and whoever else to try to win this thing even if the Cubs are getting blown out? It's a bummer we didn't take care of business yesterday in which case a win would have meaning for us no matter what today. Unfortunately, that is what it is and we have to just control what we can control now.
-
Almost playing chicken with the Cardinals today. If the Cubs go up 5-0 in the 3rd again you play a lot more to win. If it's the other way around you still try to win but focus a lot more on the rest and health of your key players and chew up some innings with guys who won't be on the playoff roster.
-
Exactly. That's why it's tough for me to get too worked up over who they face. They are pretty much playing with house money at this point. Well the big advantage for winning your division is that you don't have to win a win or go home game first just to get into the field of 4. Beyond that yeah I don't really care whether they would face the Braves or Dodgers.
-
Things were going along too well, it's been a tough last couple days. Bad Packer loss, bad Brewer losses. At least the Badgers won, but it didn't feel like it.
-
Who is the dunce of the reporter who asked Craig, "You have an extra hour tomorrow (after the Cards start to evaluate), right?" As Craig told you, everyone plays at the same time tomorrow, dummy, and a professional journalist should already know that.
