2.5 game lead with 6 to play! Exciting week ahead guys, a chance for 3 straight division titles. Enjoy this, we are in the golden era of Cubs baseball.

She wanted to secure that monthly check? But if he isn't playing baseball, not sure how long she'll get it?

Aaannnnddd.... back to no offense last night. But overall a great run of 18-9 over this brutal schedule. Take a day off today boys, you deserve it! We will be in Chicago the final 10 games of the season which is nice!

Nice to see the offense break out last night!

A little life late from the offense last night which is good to see! Even better though is Kyle's performance on the mound! He, Lester, Hamels and even Q are throwing well right now which makes the playoffs much better outlook. Through this brutal stretch of games, with little offense...

Kills to lose Strop guys, he has been very good. Northside hit the nail on the head, we had bases loaded 1 out in the 8th and need to score there. As riddled with injuries as fatigued as the pitching staff is, our last several games they really haven't given up much. Our offense needs to pick...

Brewers have done a nice job of building depth and flexibility just like the Cubs honestly. They have left/right bat options to play matchups, have depth in the pen etc. Right now, their pen is throwing so well the key is getting to the starters. Which we didn't do. Our offense needs to wake...

Now now now Judzee. Come on man, chin up, we will get at least a wild card spot. Have you watched this team the last 3 years? We still need to get that old Cub fan in us out, even after a World Series Title that old fandom still rears its ugly head sometimes :)

You bring up a good point that sometimes goes overlooked even though it is so simple... Milwaukee has a good team! They have a lot of depth like the Cubs because of the trades they have made. Sometimes it isn't what your team is or isn't doing but the fact that you are playing an almost...

Yes I believe so. And homefield advantage which would be good because our home record is much better than our road this year.

Stay positive boys, it is a grind of a schedule right now against good teams. One thing this team has shown is resilience the last 3 years which you can't put a stat on. Last night was a nice grind it out win. It is very hard to do what they are doing in baseball, which is hopefully make the...

Hockenson on Offense easily AJ on defense

Bote is the GOAT!!! :) Man, we are really missing Morrow and it sounds like he might not be back at all. Our pen could kill us in the postseason, while they have been very good this year for the most part, we could really use that one more power arm in postseason play.

Was just on 10 day DL I believe. Should be be soon I would guess.

Players are ok with it, at least publicly not much griping. The main cogs...Bryant, Riz, Javy, JHEY... are in there most days, not too many off days for them unless banged up. The ones that are interchangable split at bats more. Keeps all the guys hungry and alert.

It works, we have the best record in the NL so hard to question it. Joe gets the fact its a marathon better than any other manager, he keeps guys fresh and also plays the matchups based on splits, history etc. With how long postseason runs can be, a fresh group is key. We have played just...

Tough game for sure. Kills to lose on walks and hit batters. Must make them earn it with a hit and not freebies. The umpires zone wasn't bad, Joe and Carl just threw tantrums and were embarrassing to be honest. Carl was just using the ump as an excuse for his poor performance, not classy.

I think tomorrow. He isn't in lineup tonight so assuming might as well wait one more day when the rosters expand instead of wasting an option on a guy for only one day.

Another nice win vs a good team last night. Finding ways to grind out wins, which honestly is what a lot of the playoffs is about. Just finding a way. Another come from behind win also, around their 43rd of the year. Hoping Heyward is ok and they just took him out for precaution. This is a...

Told my daughter this morning mr walkoff is leading off the game today :)
