The Brewers got Thursday off, so their bullpen is well rested. If the Cubs can take 2 of 3, I'll be happy with that. The Cubs top 2 starters will not pitch in the series, so it's hard to imagine a Cubs sweep. Gonna have to have the bats going in this series.

The Cubs should just borrow the not interested sign and hang it in the dugout.

Need to ratchet up the intensity. If they can get 2 of 3 that'd be great but must have at least 1 obviously.

Tonight not looking good.

WAY out in the boonies here it's 61 as we type ... probably mid 50s-ish at most plus any sort of wind on top of that.

It was bat him or me at cleanup, but I forgot where my pants were and couldn't make it to the game on time.

That said, Ben Zobrist since mid-August: .367 OBP, .493 SLG, 80 PA, 123 wRC+ ... a bit cherry-picked BUT so is any slump or streak.

Pathetic effort tonight. I'm guessing we will get the late night excuse, but the game was moved to 6 hours later, so fuck that. Zobrist is useless. You probably don't have to throw Happ or Baez and strike and you could get them out every time.

When did the balcks lose all semblance of rhythm? Did Trump sign something?
