October 18, 20178 yr QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Oct 18, 2017 -> 12:20 PM) https://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/cubs-br...en-a-long-year/ Yep, the cubs are pooped! I think den mother Maddon forgot to put the cubbies down for their nappies. Then why even play tonight? Does Maddon have to bring in the petting zoo again?
October 18, 20178 yr QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Oct 18, 2017 -> 12:40 PM) This was only a matter of time. Excuse train rolling in before the series is even over... #That'sCub I guess. Why is it so hard for the media to concede that the Dodgers are just the better team? They have been all year, and should be the favorite to win the whole thing. Is it the blind worship of Jed and Theo? This team has some holes, especially pitching.

Probably because the dodgers have been the favorite before only to fall apart in the playoffs. Nobody trusts them
October 18, 20178 yr Interesting. Another article quotes Schwarber and Rizzo as saying they aren't drained while in the same article, Bryant says they are.

The cubs and their fanbase are known for their excuses. Just ask the billy goat. " wait til next year" QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 18, 2017 -> 12:49 PM) Then why even play tonight?

October 18, 20178 yr At this time of year it's been a long season for every team, everyone is probably dealing with fatigue/aches and pains in some form or another.

How much more tired could the Cubs be from playing 7 more games than the Dodgers a year ago

October 19, 20178 yr Author QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Oct 18, 2017 -> 06:33 PM) Schwarber batting 2nd against a lefty? Every time I saw a Cubs game, it seemed like Happ had an extra base hit, yet he can't find the lineup. Not sure what side he's stronger, but he is a switch hitter, which Schwarber is not. Wonder if Happ refused to have a drink of wine with Maddon and got in the dog house or something.
