October 18, 20178 yr I don't know how Puig doesn't go there. You have the pitcher coming up. You have to take a chance there.
October 18, 20178 yr QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 10:12 PM) I see the cubs have an error. Was it Schwarber? Bryant
October 18, 20178 yr QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 10:12 PM) Cubs jacked up beer prices this round. &11 for a Budweiser. I mean even if you have disposable income, how can you fork over 11 dollars for a beer? I just wouldn't do it. Even at gunpoint I wouldn't do it. No wonder Flub fans are booing.
October 18, 20178 yr QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 10:12 PM) Bryant Good thing I'm not a betting man, I would have lost.
October 18, 20178 yr Author QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 10:07 PM) lmao Carl Edwards really can't throw a strike to Yu Darvish? It seemed like a stupid decision to bat Darvish there, but Roberts may be vindicated as long as he doesn't get rocked in this inning. Edwards was just throwing too hard, but can't blame Maddon too much, that's still his 2nd best reliever.

October 18, 20178 yr Zachary Kram @zachkram 7m7 minutes ago More Darvish is the first pitcher to draw a bases-loaded walk in the playoffs since 1977, and only the 7th ever. https://twitter.com/zachkram/status/920486838787174400

That's why you should have pinch hit for him, you have to take him out soon, and a Granderson XBH potentially ends the series. They got a run either way and Dervish finished the 6th so it worked out fine.
October 18, 20178 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 11:21 PM) Good lord the Cubs are playing like crap. And with negative energy.
October 18, 20178 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 11:23 PM) Happ in center is just a bad idea You dare question Joe Maddon, the GOAT?
October 18, 20178 yr This thing looks donezo. Good. it's football season. Maybe now the Score won't be Cubs pre and post for days on end Edited October 18, 20178 yr by Sox-35th
October 18, 20178 yr Author QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 10:28 PM) Dodgers are hitting like crap with RISP. I'm still so un impressed by the bottom half of their lineup, they are probably good vs splits, but it does not look like a 104 win lineup, even with Seager.

It's cause guys like Barnes aren't big names. He was extremely productive this year. Plus lineups in the NL are usually pretty bad towards the backend.

I totally understand and guys like Hernandez and Forsythe crush LHP , but it's just something to see on paper this deep in the playoffs. Then again, guys like Freidman are so great at putting their players in the best position to succeed. It's why we were so pissed when LaRoche would.keep facing LHP.
