I'm not sure if they should feel bad for taking our rejects or we should feel bad that someone else is getting something out of our rejects.
October 4, 2025Oct 4 Javier Assad apparently has like a 2.2 ERA against the Brewers this year. Seems like a better choice than a guy who was fading down the stretch and started three days ago

October 4, 2025Oct 4 I know you gotta take the W, but would anyone have pulled Peralta early with the big lead and tried to pitch him again in Game 3?

And so does Counsell. What a terrible look for a manager to look so visibly defeated from the first inning. Edited October 4, 2025Oct 4 by WhiteSox2023
October 4, 2025Oct 4 The Cubs look exactly like they did against the Padres offensively. That's not going to work against the Brewers unless the Cubs pitching finds another gear.

Him taking the money to leave Milwaukee and then getting whooped by them in the playoffs. But that $40 million dollars probably won’t make him regret his decision.

Also there's a pretty high correlation between repeat outings in a series and worse performance for relievers. No reason to give the Cubs extra looks at their pen.
October 4, 2025Oct 4 Ohtani touched up for three after being on a late season scoreless run. Have a feeling this series goes the distance. Not sure what the heck Teoscar was doing defensively in the second...seems like he just gave up on the ball and let it get past him to the wall. No way you can let Realmuto get to third there.
October 5, 2025Oct 5 Props to David Robertson for pitching in his 17th season. Maybe shouldn’t have started this inning tho
October 5, 2025Oct 5 Ki-ke predictably unreal in postseason no matter what he does in the regular season.
October 5, 2025Oct 5 Glasnow with his in between games throwing routine...feels like Freeman makes that scoop 9/10 times.
