Looks like the Cubs have the same problem with the Beermakers, except just about every team in the NL Central is playing crappy over their last 10 games. Only the cellar Reds have been hot lately, but it's not likely they'll climb out. The Astros are benefitting from a Seattle slump, gaining separation in their division. And it looks like another season of classic rivalry between the Red Sox and Yanks.

Kíke Hernandez with two great catches to put em away. Tomorrow -- we SWEEEP!!!

Between Kemp, Bellinger and Forsythe we went 0-12 at the plate, and of course as soon as Kersh gets yanked Buehler gives up the yams. I knew the Cubbies' bats wouldn't stay silent for long. Two of the best NL teams slugging it out. I saw a stat yesterday showing the Cubs, Dodgers and Astros as having the best winning % in the last 4 seasons. Which of course stings because the Cubs and Astros are sporting rings -- the last one because of us, Kersh and Darvish. It's like when Kobe got back to the Finals and got spanked by the Celtics . . . a seething anger that can only be cooled by that champagne spray in October.
