Cubs need a solid 4 and 5. Fuck Butler and anyone else. Lackey can go get his haircut anytime he has his ring. Fucking starting rotation other than Lester and Hendricks sucks ass.

I'm starting to like Montgomery in this 3-inning save role. Joe talked in his postgame press conference that the Cardinals lineup is not a good matchup for Montgomery, so he was saving him for tonight.

But this whole thing about none of their relievers other than Davis or Strop not going back to back is very troublesome. Uehara gets killed back to back, Edwards' arm will fall off, and Rondon seems to be fragile as well. Last night their closer was going to be Grimm if Montgomery couldn't finish them off by himself.

We need a #2 or #3, Lackey and Jake are our #4 and #5.

Four in a row, looking better @ home, like to see Schwarber do something now or send him down.. That Slam bought him 12 at bats.

You know what you are when you lose six in a row then win six in a row? 500.

Yes or no, will the Cubs make the playoffs this year?

Not for me...he has 3 hits in his last 51 PA i think. Doesn't matter thst they are all HR...dude has bad at bats. His walk rate is decent, but not even close to making up for everything else.

I would say yes due to the division. I would not bet on it however.

They will win the division. Whether they advance depends heavily as to who they face in the first round. If it is LA, they have very little chance, as their lineup is not a good fit for night games in LA and seeing Kershaw twice. If it is Washington or Colorado, they have an equal shot of getting to the WAS.

Schwarber is getting murdered by the shifting and it has messed him up. He needs to just keep working on hitting the ball to center field, and maybe learn how to drop a Carlos Pena bunt or two down the 3B line when leading off an inning.

Why would the shift be murdering him? Lots of people hit just fine against shifts.

Because he isn't as good as Rizzo.

They can beat Playoff Kershaw.

Gotta give credit where credit is due.

Jake has looked really good tonight. I still don't want him re-signed at the Boras rate this offseason, but I do think he's going to have a solid 2nd half of the year.

Now lets get some runs!

Hat's off to John Malee (the white Rudy Jaramillo) for helping Jason Heyward get back on track at the plate.
