Cubs leading 3-1 against Boston. Red Sox threatened in the 5th inning with 2 on and 2 out. Could have had a big inning but Abraham Toro made a baserunning gaff that even the Rockies would be embarrassed about.

He got doubled off 2nd with 0 outs and a routine line out to CF. Almost like he had a bet on the Cubs, maybe he pulled a Luis Ortiz.

watching it now.
even though I thoroughly dislike the Red Sox, C'MON RED SOX
(all weekend long)

4-1
bottom of six
Hoerner singles in a run

Wow Red Sox got screwed. At least he got a single.

Bregman up representing the tying run in the 7th.

yup
and he hits into a force out
then they bring in Pomeranz, who gets Roman Anthony to fly out.

Cubs are a good team. If they add a top starter this deadline they will have a decent shot at the WS.

Just reading that gave me indigestion...

So it goes...

Cubs win
4-1

I bet the Cubs get Mitch Keller from the Pirates, which would be a great get for them. The Pirates have a track record of helping our the Cubbies.

If the Crew make the playoffs, that's who I say will win the WS

They are good but let's see if they win the NL Central . They may have to qualify as a wildcard ,

Keller would be fine addition .. hope people remember that Brewers just got return of Woodruff (hadn't pitched at all this year ). Talk about 'a great get for them ' getting the 2 time all star back . Wow !
