Four games against the Cubs...pretty much determines the season.
"Dustin Pedroia doesn't have the strength or bat speed to hit major-league pitching consistently, and he has no power......He probably has a future as a backup infielder if he can stop rolling over to third base and shortstop." Keith Law, 2006

Cardinals won. Phillies won. Cubs winning big. Mets winning. Diamondbacks winning.

 

Once again we just cannot get any help whatsoever.

 

Brewers not losing helps.

 

Sure, but when you're playing catchup and running out of games, you need to gain ground, not just hold serve.

 

Certainly no exaggeration that the next series is the biggest of the season. Depending on the result we could be anywhere from tied for the wild card to 8 games back. A series win at minimum, 3 of 4, is a must to realistically hope to stay relevant.

Did get help from the Nats who scored 7 in the ninth to beat the Mets 11-10.

 

The Mets brought in their closer, Lugo, in the 8th while clinging to a 5-4 lead, but then lifted him when they scored 5 in the top of the 9th. Oops.

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

Thursday and Friday vs LHP. Austin and Freitas hit lefties well, so does Pina and Braun. Maybe Cain can surprise and Perez too, we’ll see what happens with the lineup. Counsell not gonna let Anderson or Davies or Gio give up much, bullpenning all weekend, playoffs all 4 games.
