Wow that's a bit of a shocker. Not sure how good he'll be having not played in so long, but he's certainly a threat if he gets hold of one
Is it insane for me to want to go be in Wrigleyville next weekend? I'm trying to decide today if I'm going to do it or not. I have a friend who lives near the train who is cool with me staying at his place for the weekend. I have no illusions of going to the games themselves, I just want to be around should they manage to do it in 5.
I thought this was an interesting look at it: Schwarber coming back to DH gives them more flexibility in finding ways around using Heyward.Wow that's a bit of a shocker. Not sure how good he'll be having not played in so long, but he's certainly a threat if he gets hold of one
The Cubs are the best team in baseball, but Cleveland has all the hallmarks of the "Red Hot Playoff Team Who Wins It All." This should be a good series.
Someone catch me up. I know this is catharsis for Cubs fans (my condolences on today's result), I know Ashley must support the Cubs not the Bears because she's been posting things on FB, GAF are you Cubs? Can one of the two of you explain to me in personal terms how amazing this is? I feel it, because less than a month ago a cursed underdog won our highest honour, but I'd like to hear from Cubs fans about this experience.

Yes, of course. However, I think the narrative from most is that "the good" is not part of the equation only the "red hot." Maybe I'm a little sensitive about how good this team is and don't feel they're being respected.
Here's a tweet that I saw last night that is pretty funny.
I wasn't accusing them of being a lucky team (like the Giants of recent years) by saying they were red hot. One team seems to get red hot every postseason, often times it's a very good team.

"It" of course is always one dominant pitching performance from going the fuck out the window. But I don't know if Arrieta is that guy right now
Honestly... $250 a person for dinner, an appetizer, the cover charge and all you can drink for the entire game isn't THAT crazy.
