All four are 6:05pm starts ... first three Comcast, Thursday is on WGN.

They set the record for most home wins yesterday, hit 99 wins overall (most since 1935), as well as clinching best record in baseball which in itself means nothing but of course does get the Coob home field advantage for as long as they stay in the NL Playoffs.

Speaking of wins ... 2012 feels like a long time ago ... thankfully:

It's a pretty good defensive squad the Cubs run out there.

It's on its way to being a nice drubbing.

Can Hendricks get under 2.00 in this outing?

I don't feel like doing the math.

Back of napkin math says 7 SO innings will do it ... maybe a hair (by cracky) less

Whether he does or not tonight...he pitches on Sunday. He'll be looking at 1.95 end of season.

Kyle doesn't worry about silly things like 'what the other pitcher is doing.'

Kyle shuts down the other offense.

Nice. After 6 Hendricks ERA is 1.99. 93 pitches in as mentioned spring training game. He should finish season under 2.

Now you all are finally paying attention to it. Hector Marmol has no business being on the playoff roster.

While he has been bad since coming back, he needs to be on the playoff roster. Live arm with late game experience. You may not use him, but you need him there.

I didn't like it either, Chap pitched the night before. He didn't need the work..why bring him in a 10 run blowout?

Joe was quoted before the game as saying that Strop/Rondon/Chapman were pitching the 7th, 8th, and 9th regardless of the score. Start to get them ready for the post season.

I still, after all this time do not trust Strop. I'm not sure I'm ready to until he gets through this postseason.

The bullpen will be the reason we don't win it all.

Strop will implode and Rondon is the worst pitcher in baseball right now.

We. Are. Fucked.
