Chisoxfn Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 13, 2015 -> 02:20 PM) on the bright side, at least the Mets have pitchers with actual "stuff". Dodgers do too. Whomever faces the Cubs is a better team then the Cards today. That said, I think it will be Mets - Cubs. This young teams that are in earlier then expected are not afraid of the moment (they don't even know what the moment is). I think the Dodgers are in trouble but they also have two aces on the mound. If they win today, Greinke will win the series for him (that guy is clutch). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said in other thread I think us Cubs haters should root for Mets tonight, as two straight Dodgers wins means an unfavorable matchup in game 1 of NLCS of Arrieta vs Anderson/Wood/Bolsinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Lose your starting catcher and veteran you're left with a backup having to make stupid pitching decisions. Although Lackey is at fault too obviously, he got lazy on a breaking ball to HamMel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 With that said, that pick off is an example of how well coached the Cubs are. They probably have 15-20 of those this year, especially with Ross behind the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Sox played the Cardinals this year, I didn't think they were much better than the Sox. Agreed. Just for comparisons sake, let's look at the starting pitchers. Sale = Arrieta (I think Sale is better overall, but Arrieta had a better season this year) Quintana > Lester Rodon > Hammel Danks = Hendricks Johnson = Haren Of course their offense is much better but I think the Sox rotation is better.

chw42 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I said from the beginning of the playoffs that the Cardinals would lose to either the Cubs or Pirates in the DS. They're just too banged up and pretty much all of their pitchers overachieved their peripherals. I just hoped the Cubs would crap themselves under the pressure their fans create. Looks like that didn't exactly happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the ump had to come out to him to replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
