Batting Zo fifth against Scherzer and leaving out La Stella, who has hit Scherzer well in a small sample (and Scherzer has very pronounced splits anyway) is disappointing. His refusal to admit Zobrist isn't the same guy is getting to Dusty levels of veteran favoritism.
How's that October Zen working out for ya, Hoss?

I'm...not allowed to disagree with a lineup? I didn't drop any F bombs so I would consider that to be relatively tame as far as my criticism goes. I was also a touch disappointed that they lost in game 2 when I would have preferred they won. Sue me.

Don't listen to him SKO, you're doing fine.

I can't promise my eye won't twitch if Zobrist makes outs in key spots today, but otherwise I'm pretty much at peace with however this series can play out. The Nationals are very, very good. If the Cubs get beat, they get beat.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

Love too watch Zobirst and Haywards struggle with runners on base in the playoffs
You two wanna go stick your wangs in a hornet's nest, it's a free country.  But how come I always gotta get sloppy seconds, huh?

In Joe's defense, the entire bullpen has been a trash fire.  It's more of a controlled demolition though, not an explosion, so that's why they're still winning (for now).

Schwarber still in left, Montgomery still on the mound in the 8th in a one-run game...  Joe's only good decision this postseason has been to ride Davis when he had no choice in Game 5.  After that...
Those Cardinals aren't red, they're yellow.  Like the Spanish!

Well look who it fuckin' is now that they're trailing. Our good buddy old pal CFiHP, who only feels alive when there's something to bitch and moan about. Enjoying the game, chief?
