Fangraphs has rounded it to an even 100%

We could still get 163 with Cubs/Brewers both clinched playoff spots...and then play each other again in the NLDS.

This team is out of gas. No other way around it.

This is generally a nonsense statement and only used when no one really knows why someone wins and someone loses.

if they hang 7-8 runs on them the next 2 games, did they find gas somewhere?

diehard, you apparently know little about baseball.

When you play something like 30 games in 31 days to close out the season and lose your top setup man and closer you start to put square pegs in round holes. Several buddies keep telling me the Cubs are choking once again. I disagree and stick by the original rationale. I sincerely hope they score 7-8 runs in each of the next few games, but I am not holding my breath.

Tired or not tired, they are choking.

They aren't choking. They just have someone in their division whos currently 4 wins above their Pyth. W/L with a MVP candidate raking right now.

Get locked-in boys. This is going to be a wild one.

Gentlemen, I have realized a certain joy we have before us.

We have the distinct opportunity to clinch the division and eliminate the redbirds next series.

Oh how sweet that will be.

They have won the past 2 series...... granted way behind the 8 ball on this series just to split. And The Brewers are playing very well. Call it a choke if you want, call it a tired club, but whatever it is, it's a hell of a division race.

Really need a win today.

This team isn't going anywhere with this bullpen. Epic fail by Theo and co. not to have assembled a more dependable / dominant pen.

Division on the line and Maddon rolling with Jamie Garcia in the 10th?

1 down, a few more to go.

And, for the record, if they lost that game last night, THAT GAME would have been a choke.

Big win.

2 series wins and then a split. Not choking.

Tigers got 3 in the first but Yelich came back with a 2-run bomb in the bottom of the inning.

Pathetic. Hope we get to play on Monday. Milwaukee ain't losing these next two.

Yes and then the loser hosts the WC game on Tuesday. Dodgers and Rockies could potentially be playing game 163 on Monday too to decide who wins the West and who goes on the road for the WC game.

Trubisky has six touchdown passes today and my wife is flying to Chicago this afternoon. Hopefully those are good omens.
