    Sad thing is.....out of the 3 players in that picture, the best hitter in the post season was probably Hampton.

    Went to that game with my dad during my first year of law school. Man, that was satisfying.

    When I think of the Cubs playing the Astros, I mostly remember when they were little b****es and Oswalt made Barrett cry.

    Espada says Singleton to get more opportunities...Abreu gets the start. They both suck donkey anyway. Bregman still batting 4th, I dont know Joe, how about applying yourself a little and managing the team like your job depends on it??

    I agree with how stupid his lineup management is…. But this kinda tells me Crane and Baggy (not sure about Brown) are forcing his hand. At least that’s what I really wanna believe because there’s no way a manager can be this stupid.

    Cubs are starting a lefty today, this should be the only game JAbreu starts and plays in the series.

    Will Abreu's OPS be over the Mendoza line after today?
