Shit is getting real in a different way now. First off, sorry Jar but screw your Birds for letting me down. You're letting Milwaukee come to your house and steal your lunch money. I wanted a Braves, Cards, Cubs, Whoever playoffs. Frick!

Now, down to bidnezz. As I type, the Cubs are getting shut out by the Pirates. The Brewers are hammering the aforementioned Birds late. If this holds up, and it looks like it will, tomorrow will find the Cubs up only a half game on Milwaukee with 4 to play.

The Dodgers are playing the downtrodden D'Backs and should hold on to the division. But, if the Baby Bears don't get that shit together, they might get overtaken by the Rockies. Meaning, it's still a very real, miniscule as it might be, possibility the Cubs don't make the playoffs.

Wow!!!

I blame Gus for the Cardinals collapse.

He's meddling in the pitching rotation again.

He must be in the Clark suit now.

I maintain that baseball is much more fun when the Brewers are mediocre.

Pitching is my thing. It was what I was sort of semi-decent at throughout my "career". As boring as this would be to 99.875% of the population, I love watching a great pitching performance. Yeah, I love watching wall bangers and roid rage home runs. But, watching someone who has complete control of where a pitch will go, how fast or slow it will go there and knowing why you're throwing that pitch to that particular batter in that situation, is frickin' awesome to me.

My Bravos got embarrassed tonight by maybe the best in the game right now, Jacob deGrom. He gave up a couple of early hits, then set down 20 in a row. TWENTY major league hitters. And he toyed with them. 97-99 fast ball. Perfectly located breaking pitches at 82-84. Threw that Greg Maddox back up pitch all night that starts a foot off the plate and cuts back into the strike zone after hitters have given up on it. He's 10-9 with about a 1.30 ERA. He'll win the Cy Young because voters recognize what a shitty team he plays for. Perfect example. His ERA is right at 1.00 against the Braves. He's 1-5. You tell me.

Give me deGrom, Kershaw, Scherzer, Verlander, Kluber etc. I'll watch that shit all day.

So the Brewers celebrate on the field at Busch, and Cards are now 1 1/2 out. Bad when you have to put your faith in the Phillies today, and then the Nats over the weekend.

On the plus side, I swiped right and ended up meeting Nook for dinner at Lambeau Field.

Lambeau Field is in Oregon?

St Louis. He was in town.

This last weekend is going to be interesting. Do the Cards mail it in or do they take pride in putting the Cubs into the WC game?
Will Green Bay ever be the same?
Will Snaggs put his collie molesting days behind him?

These net two days will be fun to watch unfold in the NL. Brewers, however have the easiest remaining imo.

Over. The Brew Crew won and the Cards submitted like a 12 year old Bama fan to her Uncle.

Meh, they choked hard the past week. Maybe we can win tomorrow and force the Cubs into the Wild Card.

I blame Gus. My fucking nerves will be wracked today at noon.
