As it stands right now the tying run for the Cubs only exists in the future. At least the Padres got him on base.

Contrarian viewpoint on the Brewers

They’ve been sucking it up almost as bad as the Cubs. But lets be honest, the Brewers ARE going to make the NL playoffs. Certainly Ned Yost understands that. Maybe it is a case of him trying like hell to get Eric Gagne sorted out given the general lousiness of their bullpen. They need a semi-good Gagne in the playoffs. Might as well invest in getting him going now.

Sounds almost "Howry-like" in that philosophy

The only stats I care about are the ones on the back of a baseball card

by carmen_fanzone on Sep 5, 2008 9:30 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yep, except....

Howry is done. Cubs have the bullpen depth to leave him off of the playoff roster. The Brewers on the other hand really need Eric Gagne to work out. Their bullpen isn’t going to get them far in the playoffs. Not unless they blow the opponent out or Sabathia, Sheets and Parra pitch complete games.

Don't be too sure

If they lose, they’re only 3 ahead of the Phils, and the Cards are winning

At least...

You’re not a Brewers fan. Watching the Cubs get shellacked by Cincy and then not being able to put away the Padres with your best starter out there?

Ouch.

ouch is right

i can’t imagine how frustring this is for the brewer fans… to see the cubs skidding and then seeing yourself lose ground.

If they don't win this game

They can blame yost for leaving CC in during the 130 pitch blow out….

That is the only reason that CC was pulled tonight at 105…

good chance for Friars tomorrow...

…Peavy has been better than Sheets lately. How awesome would it be if they pull it out tonight, the Cubs turn it around tomorrow and end up with a 6 game lead.
