Schwarbs swung at ball 3 and then got boned by a bad call to make it 2-2. Ruined the whole inning.

That's a long ass night and I'll be tired tomorrow. Damnit.

Goodnight season.

2 runs in 22 innings with the season on the line. Yeah, not a choke job at all.

This season has sucked since mid August. See you boys next year. I'll be in Arlington for the Ranger's series.

Better get some bats going into next season (and get rid of Heyward)

It was hard to watch a major league lineup hit that poorly for that long.

56 less homers from last season and a 30 point drop in OPS

Awful. Despicable. Miserable. Infuriating. I cannot believe these bats folded like this down the stretch and into the postseason. Chili needs to go and Maddon might need to as well. Time to hire Girardi or Ross then sign Bryce. Figure the rest out afterwards.

No thanks on Girardi.

My seven year old was upset with the news this morning. He has been a Cubs fan ever since he was on the Cubs T-ball team. I let him stay up thru 9 last night but then he had to go to bed.

Of course, being 7, he is also a Rangers, Astros, Brewers, Nationals, Angels(only Mike Trout), Athletics fan and a fan of whoever is playing the Cardinals, Yankees, Dodgers, or Red Sox. So he still has a lot of action going.

60something less runs scored this year.

I thought for sure when Javy got to 3rd we'd have an attempt at some home stealing shennanigans

Ditto. Hopefully this team comes back hungrier than ever after this total fade job the past month. Need a true lead-off hitter and more contact all around. The heart of our order strikes out way too much. And Bryant needs to figure things out... Dude's regressed in a major way. What a disappointing stretch for the Cubbies. Harper would create a new buzz, so find a way to drop Russell/Happ/and maybe even Schwabs. Time to reset a tick or two.

I think they pick up the Hamels option.

Need Happ/Contreras/Russell/Bryant to pick it up (althought I think Bryant will be fine if he just puts the bat down in the offeason)

I want Hamels back but not really at $20MM. Would he really get that in the open market?

Also, I have a connection in the Rangers ticket office and am already working with him on a group order for the opening series next year if anyone is interested in sitting with us.

I might be in the minority but I prefer no monster contracts this offseason. If they did go that route I'd prefer Machado over Harper. I think infield versatility is more valuable than a lefty corner OF bat.

I'd prefer most money go to SP and RP and maybe a solid bat like DJ. Just my 2 cents.

Did you not watch the complete lack of offense the last month or so?

Yes. The issue all season was inconsistency. Give me a healthy Bryant next year and a bounce back from Contreras and I feel good. Get a nice piece to supplement.

You are going to need a SS.

Or a 2B and someone to spell Javy at SS occasionally.
