Yeah I shiver a bit thinking about how Daniel Murphy knocked us around with the Mets
I'll agree with that. Murphy has had our number. Don't underestimate the Dusty Baker factor here, though. He's bound to blow at least one game due to just being stubborn. The Nats don't exactly have a real scary bullpen, and the prospects of playing against a less than 100% Bryce Harper shift the series in our favor, I believe. Whatever happens, its been a pretty fun year of baseball on the north side. I could really get used to making the playoffs every year.
Agree with the Dusty Baker factor.
one of the most overrated managers ever. right there with Bobby Cox
The nats have a very scary pen. It's not Andrew Miller, but they have 3 closers for the 7th, 8th, and 9th.
will myself to find a home, a home within myself we will find a way, we will find our place

Not sure who's pen is scarier...ours or theirs
Kintzler and Doolittle can pitch.

I know. I was being sarcastic because our bullpen blows. Hope they show up this postseason.

^ Good point. Outside of the power, I'll take either of their bats over Schwarbers for the defense that comes with it. Jay is a clutch hitter and Almora can swing it too. I'm a big fan of both.
Baez is 0 for 5 with 3 Ks vs Scherzer. Zobrist is 5 for 25 but 3 of those hits are HRs so I get it to an extent. You can always bring Baez in to pinch hit later.
The full lineup for Chicago: Jay CF, Kris Bryant 3B, Anthony Rizzo 1B, Willson Contreras C, Ben Zobrist 2B, Schwarber LF, Heyward RF, Addison Russell SS, Jose Quintana SP.

In any event, it's game time! Let the show begin...go Cubs!

The worst part is that was from the best (excluding our closer) our bullpen has to offer.
