October 19, 20178 yr I still dont understand Roberts refusal to pitch hit for Granderson or Utley last inning. Makes no sense.
October 19, 20178 yr Bellinger couldn't have asked for better pitch to hit. Big blunder by Roberts with his crappy lineup

Big blunder by Roberts with his crappy lineup Roberts starting Utley and Granderson was idiotic. Your team has been absolutely rolling and you decide to mess with your starting lineup and put in two of the worst hitters in baseball? Utley is like 0 for his last 30 or somethig and Granderson cannot hit a breaking ball to save his life.
October 19, 20178 yr Guys relax. The Dodgers are still going to win the series. This game was the cubs saving face. They blew their Davis load, now they are absolutely f***ed tomorrow. I am going to place a RL bet on the Dodgers are soon as the lines are up. 2K!

Dodgers will still win the series but the Cubs won't let it happen at Wrigley. Dodgers will be favored to win tomorrow. Smart $ will be on the home underdog.
October 19, 20178 yr QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Oct 18, 2017 -> 11:22 PM) Hopefully Seager replaces one of them as early as tomorrow. I thought he wasn't on the roster?

Roberts has been deemed a genius until tonight.

October 19, 20178 yr QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Oct 18, 2017 -> 10:20 AM) ... the cubs are pooped! Cut that s*** out... unless you wanna get suspended. I'll report your ass to the poop patrol. Don't test me. This is not a joke.

You might just win back that house you lost on the Indians. This series is going back to LA, Q shuts em down tonight and Kershaw has his typical postseason performance, about 4 ER.
October 19, 20178 yr QUOTE (Tony @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 01:26 AM) I believe if they take someone else off the roster with an injury, Seager can be added back. Earlier in this thread it said he could replace an injured player but then said replaced player would not be allowed on to a world series roster. Utley, Granderson and 3 catchers makes for an poorly constructed roster. Granderson is terrible.

I would think it would probably be Culberson or Farmer though.

October 19, 20178 yr Cubs fans at work are quiet again. This is shocking. I was waiting for, we were down 3-1 against the Indians and we will do it again against the Dodgers!! Not a peep.

October 19, 20178 yr QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 10:32 AM) What does Utley bring to the table? I was going to say experience and veteran leadership...which he would still bring to the table if he is left off the roster so I guess I don't know.
October 19, 20178 yr Why the Cubs can't come back against the Dodgers http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...1019-story.html

He brings absolutely nothing to the table. The guy hasn't got a hit in his last 30 postseason at-bats. He can't field well and can barely throw the ball over to first. 2008 was a long time ago...
