Aaron Judge doing Aaron Judge things.  I don't know how much longer he can keep hitting like Babe Ruth, but it is fun at the moment.

A game or two into each series....who are we liking so far?

[WayneFleekHoosier 49,856]

always da Cubs!

Can't believe they got the W last night over Strasburg.

I don't think the Cubs pitching is strong enough to win it all though.

Astros/Cleveland and Cubs/Dodgers. Only series that will be close is Cubs and Nats. I am a Cubs fan. With Scherzer only able to go one, Strasbourg losing game one, and Dusty Baker as the manager I feel it favors Cubs.

I think the Indians have replaced the Cardinals as the team that always pulls off crazy comebacks and gets every big break in every big game.

[WayneFleekHoosier 49,856]

Brutal loss for the Cubs! Damn. That could come back to bite them.

Hoping the Astros pull out of Beantown w/a victory this afternoon.  Something about Boston that they can never be counted out.  Yesterday, Astros weaknesses were exposed...defense and bullpen.  Didn't help that the one guy they pulled in to bolster the bullpen before the trade deadline gave up a bomb (thanks Liriano).  

Betts made a game changing catch by robbing Reddick of a 3-run jack early on...the field dimensions at Fenway are incredibly wonky.

Ding Dong the BoSox are dead, thank you Houston.

Bad news, Schwarber just had a Benny Hill moment in the left field corner.

[WayneFleekHoosier 49,856]

Schwarber just joined the list of Not Top plays in Cubs history. Ugh.

He totally lollygagged it after that ball. If he runs hard after it, he catches it -- easily. I don't understand what the hell he was thinking and/or doing!

Zobrist with the gem. Glad they erased Schwarbers error.

Astros...YES!  They pulled out a big win.  They just took 6 of 8 from Boston (including 4 of 6 in Boston).  Altuve looked like the MVP he is (or should be).  They need to tighten up their D and pray that the bullpen can hold it together.  

They NYY/CLE game 5 will be a solid one, Sabathia vs Kluber.  As an Astros fan I don't know who to root for.  I just hope it's a 20 inning marathon.  lol  Selfishly, I'm pulling for NYY as it would be nice to have home field advantage and the opportunity to grab a ticket to see Game 3 in NYC.

Jon Lester picked someone off! I don't think the Cubs fans cheered this hard during the World Series.

[WayneFleekHoosier 49,856]

Carl Edwards pretty much single handedly cost the Cubs 2 games in this series. Unreal.

At this rate, Schwarber may not enter the game as a pinch hitter, but as a pitcher.
