Josh Smith is left-handed. Nice how he found a new career after he couldn't cut it in the NBA.

Maddon running out his Game 1 lineup today.

Fowler
Bryant
Rizzo
Zobrist
Russell
Heyward
Baez
Ross
Lester

Lester needs the W with 9 K's to secure the Cy Young award, IMO.

Yeah looks like he definitely wants to get Lester his 20th. I remember a few years back when he was with Boston and had his last start to get 20 he got shelled.

Lester might have cost himself the CY yesterday, when the playoffs start...I want Baez at 2nd and Zobrist in Left.

Rondon should be out of a playoff spot but I doubt he will be.

I'm in MASS PANIC mode.

Arrieta was awful his last start and Lester and our playoff lineup couldn't even beat the Reds.

Mets are hot right now too. Fuck.

Hopefully Hendricks can give me some faith tomorrow

You've got those playoff juices flowing Gay. How are you going to handle the four days in between games?

Cubs top 3 starters each shelled in their last starts before the playoffs. Not a good omen.

Not even trolling when I say it won't surprise me if they get swept in the NLDS.

I don't know why it would. It's baseball playoffs. The Cubs are guaranteed nothing.

Put it this way. I never expected the Yankees, Red Sox , Cardinals etc to be swept out of a series when they had the best record in baseball. I fully expect it to happen with the Cub.

Yup. This team isn't getting out of the NLDS.

They're in a complete lull while the Mets or Giants will be coming in sharp.

Sighhhhhhh

The asian is fast. Throw him on the playoff roster for a pinch run situation.
