Mike Honcho 4,014 Posted October 2, 2018 Win or go home tonight. Cubs host the Rockies. Hard to believe the Cubs have to play another game without a day off. I was more concerned with playing the back to back games, over getting home field throughout the playoffs. 1 game sample sizes are such a crap shoot in baseball. Least you are hosting it and the Rockies are traveling cross-country. Maybe we can do it all again Thursday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,941 Posted October 3, 2018 Maddon taking Lester out after six. He's asking for it.Yep. I dont like it. Well see what happens, but this bullpen is beyond shaky. eta: The Cubs would probably be ok without Lester going the distance if they could get a focking run or two.

Mike Honcho 4,014 Posted October 3, 2018 Cmon Cubs. I need sleep. It was a good season for the Cubs, though i'm sure they feel like they left some on the table-injuries really came into play late though. Honestly, I'm relieved the Crew don't have to face that rotation anymore. Feel free to jump on the Central Division winner bandwagon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, I'm relieved the Crew don't have to face that rotation anymore. Feel free to jump on the Central Division winner bandwagon. Lots of disappointment around here today. Good luck to the Brewers, but I can't jump on that bandwagon. I was a Yankees fan for many years, so I'm pulling for them now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crackattack 513 Posted October 3, 2018 I'm an Indians fan, so obviously pulling for them. Other teams I want to win if not the Indians. No particular order. Brewers Oakland Rockies Basically any team not in a major market or spending above the :coughcough: cap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,296 Posted October 3, 2018 Braves first... If they can't win, anybody but the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers and Astros (since they won it last year)... The Cubs would have been there as well, but that is over... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,618 Posted October 3, 2018 Always liked Buck. He got the Yankees back on track in the 90's. I don't think the dynasty happens without him and Gene Michael. They went from a complete talentless mess to an efficient winning machine in short order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,618 Posted October 3, 2018 Joe Torre got the credit but 96 was Buck's team. Lots of turn over on the 96 team. Jeter, Tino, Raines, Girardi, K Rogers, Fielder, Duncan. But most important they got Jimmy Key back and Mariano emerged. Torre deserves credit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
