The Official Chicago Cubby Bears Thread

[roosterjbh]

Cubs have been on a brutal stretch with no breaks. Got their first day off today in like 30 days. Hope we finish strong

Kind of surprised Hamels got rocked like that last night, especially since the Dbacks were pretty much playing their AAA team.

Well something good happened last night, Cubs win, Brewers lose, MN down to 6.

Cubs gonna fool around and end up a WC

Last night was a pathetic effort. And Hamels is concerning me, he's lost 4 of his last 5.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

This is embarrassing; getting schooled by the Pirates.

 

[Orange defense]

Please put (Cards) out of their misery, if we don’t win tomorrow...

 

[VolsSportsFan]

And now at best we can only force a game Monday to determine the division and homefield.

I have to think going from leading the NL for about 3 months and to go to a WC on the last day would be a pretty big downer.

That’s not true. If cubs wins and Milwaukee loses you get the division

True, but I’m not holding my breath the Tigers win tomorrow. Hope I’m wrong.

Huge games today. Cubs have to win and u have to figure the Brewers are due for a loss. Man, I don't want to eff with a wldcard game or an extra game for the division. Unless of course, we win that division playoff game

 

[508mikey]

has there ever been 2 one game playoffs for a division title ? could happen this year with Cubs/Brewers and Rockies/ Dodgers

looks like the playoff might happen as of now --

Wilson with the huge HR. Cubs up 8-2. Come on Tigers

Tigers are laying down -- not even playing regular players today

 

[The Dog]

Yeah, Cubs up 10-4, Brewers 10-0, division championship game at Wrigley tomorrow.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Smh.

Another effin 1 run game. Brewers likely to win the NL at this rate.

 

[508mikey]

several teams fired their hitting coaches today -- Chili Davis should be let go soon

I am surprised at how many online I see defending him. I mean I get at the end of the day, the players have to hit. But Davis has a track record of this. The Red Sox certainly don't miss him.

 

[Orange defense]

Sorry guys.

got a 40 game suspension today -- funny how he accepted it after denying everything

 

[The Dog]

First time I could show myself after those last 2 games. This one hurt, I had no doubt the Cubs could and would make the WS and then u never know ? It just never all came together with this team. Injuries hurt but no excuses, we choked the division, which led to the one game Wildcard, which I still think is ridiculous, even back when we beat the Pirates. Oh well, I expect to make some big time moves in the off-season and make another run next year.
