I'm just glad we got the one World Series run where Lester was good .


If you ignore the 3-4 games where he gave up 8+ runs, he has been pretty good. But once a month he really drops a turd.

Can't win em all


I have this irrational theory of "well they probably won't win 12 in a row (tonight and Brewers series) but could Win 7, drop 1, Win 4

Seems way more doable that way.

could be overlooking this game for the next series?

I feel better w/ the cubs playing in Mil than in Chicago. At least the weather is controlled in Mil and a good hitters park. Last time they were swept in Chi, wind was blowing and and they just gave up.

Good points. We shall see who steps up. This series obviously is for the NL Central.

Yep and champ retains if it's a draw. It really sets up exactly like a title fight.

Should have Lampley and Buffer on hand

Btw, if Cubs win the series some Brewer will criticize the fans for the stadium takeover by Cub fans.

If there are more Cubs fans than Brewers fans for this series then that is pathetic for Brewers fans.

Consider for a moment that MANY Cubs fans probably bought tickets for this series a long time ago.

I've got my 4 for tonight. Tickets were borderline cheap on StubHub for tonight's game. I mean, not cheap but compared to what I have to pay fir Wrigley they were cheap.
