jmac_48 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Cubs 5-0 tonight to stop the slide.. Was worrying about the O, showed some improvement late. Still good D and pitching can prove valuable in the playoffs! Good to see the team score some runs! GO CUBS GO CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN FLY THE W I think this win clinches the playoffs .

landrus13 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Cardinals are currently losing to the Royals 3-1 in the 8th. Offense continues to be horrid. Cardinals will probably back into the playoffs because the NL is a crapshoot at the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006Coltsbestever Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Kris Bryant is injured, Oblique = bad. He has struggled all season though. We are pretty deep but if he can't play in the playoffs that hurts our team. Cubs won 5-0 over the Pirates tonight so we are on our way to at least winning the NL Central. Fly the Flag Hozer.

I love Bryant but he has struggled all season and has been injured a lot. Bote is more than capable of taking over at 3rd for Bryant if need be. Rizzo is still a huge key to our team as well.

RollerColt Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Reds will need to win at least 3 out of their final 5 games to stay in playoff contention. Ideally winning 4 should be enough to get in. I can't believe I'm even saying that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was primarily a catcher in college I believe,(IU) But also played outfield. Has a heck of a bat though, and a great motivational team player.

landrus13 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 If the season ended today The season does not end today, thankfully, but if it did, the postseason brackets would look like this: American League No. 1 Rays vs. No. 8 Blue Jays No. 2 White Sox vs. No. 7 Cleveland No. 3 Athletics No. 6 Astros No. 4 Twins vs. No. 5 Yankees National League No. 1 Dodgers vs. No. 8 Brewers No. 2 Braves vs. No. 7 Reds No. 3 Cubs vs. No. 6 Marlins No. 4 Padres vs. No. 5 Cardinals Here are the first round matchups if they playoffs started today.

I mean, he isnt, but he also isnt as bad as all thought. He needs to show up more on national tv, but he also has made some real good plays. His arm saves him a lot too.

If there is a good twist to this, if we remain in the 3 spot our matchups are real favorable and we avoid the Dodgers or Padres until the NLCS. After tonight we are still 3.5 ahead of the Cards and Reds, 4.5 over the Brewers in the NL Central. Cards have now played 53 games, we have played 56. That is a pretty comfortable lead at this point.

2006Coltsbestever Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I hate the fact we are struggling but we are pretty much locked in at that 3rd spot anyway. We are 32-25 so the most losses we could have are 28. The Reds and Brewers both have already lost 28. There is a small outside shot that the Cards could catch us, they are 27-26 but that is a long shot. They would have to get real hot and we would have to almost lose out.
