If I"m correct, BAL, TOR, and SF need to lose today and STL and DET (today and tomorrow in the make up game) need to win for maximum possible hilarity tomorrow, right?

The other NLDS teams could be The Home for Blind Amputees, The Elderly Nun Hospice, and a team consisting of 25 kids who always get picked last on the playground, and I still would be worried the Cubs would gently caress it up.

CubsWoo posted:If this is how you feel about the playoffs why not just wish for the team to sink back into the soft sub-.500 comfort of 2010-2014 among other long stretches of garbage Chicago Cubs baseball instead of all this handwringing about when the other shoe is going to drop Dude. We're Cubs fans. We're the dog with the rear end in a top hat owner who has kicked us every day. Even though he hasn't in a while, we know it's coming.

Can Bumgarner just tweak a knee or something after the game so he's out for the NLDS but just fine afterwards (like hopefully Spring Training?)

CubsWoo posted:Arrieta had the best 2nd half since the deadball era last year and went into the NLDS allowing 0 ER in his last 31 IP including a CGSO in the NLWCG and ended up with the following lines: He was also suprisingly average his last 16 starts of this regular season, posting a 4.44 ERA. We'd be better off with Lackey in Game 3.

DannoMack posted:Like every other Jays game I've ever been to there have been drunk racist homophobic things yelled at outfielders and/or fights. Last season I saw a group of guys in the 500s yelling at a family of German tourists (who looked displeased that the dudes were passing a blunt back and forth over their young son's head) for being too stupid and poor to buy better seats for their kid. Blue Jays fans are the worst anyway, and American sports media running with the whole "the atmosphere in Rogers Centre is UNREAL" thing is just emboldening the dummies. But also.. I don't really follow the Indians, but don't they have the C on their caps and jerseys now instead of the "Indian"? I thought they were trying to kind of distance themselves from that logo.

Timby posted:Has there been any further word on Hendricks' arm injury? I would think at this point no news is good news. Maddon said he was day-to-day and x-rays were negative, so it sounds like he'll be ok once the swelling goes down. He won't pitch til probably at least Game 2 of the NLCS anyway (assuming we get there) so he's got a week or so yet.
