Wow series is 2-1 and your already saying "wait til next year"? I could see it if Kershaw was locked in for game 4 & 7 if needed but he's not. Not a Cubs but way too early to say "wait until next year". Guessing your a fall baseball fan like so many that try act like experts all season. This series is a long way from over. Maybe if the Dodgers win tomorrow you could post that crap. Maybe. But the Cubs win tomorrow, this is their series to lose with Lester going game 5. For all you "fall baseball fans" the Dodgers can't hit lefty pitching. So game 5 is pretty much a cub lock. Game 6 will be Kershaw, so fairly certain a Dodger lock. So tomorrow's game is key for the series

I wouldn't lock Kershaw in for a win. The cubs got to Bumgarner who wasn't supposed to be hittable. Also seeing Kershaw a second time will help a lot for these young hitters.Wow series is 2-1 and your already saying "wait til next year"?

Thanks for the analysis, Richard. Say hi to that douche Husker Doooo for me too.wait til next year!!!
Ugh. I had to put my pup down earlier this year. Had her for 12 years. Not a good time. Life has a fortunate, and unfortunate way of delivering perspective.So I have been a Cubs fan since 1984 ..Here is how my yesterday started....go to the garage there is a mouse on top of my car, try to start my car it wont turn over, call USAA they come out and it wont jump start either so it gets towed, spend half the day at a mechanic only to learn the batter was leaking acid. Just had my oil changed last Wed at the dealership you think they could have given me a heads up. Middle of the day my border collies back legs stop working. He sleeps so do the Cubs bats. Take the dog to the vet and they say he also has a heart and circulation issue. I have to put him down and I am pretty much crushed. Cubs bats are also put to sleep but I dont really care about that right now....Today CANNOT be worse than yesterday. CANNOT
The Cubs seem to have trouble hitting left handed curve ball pitchers. Young guys needing some seasoningWow series is 2-1 and your already saying "wait til next year"?

Not a "fall baseball" fan. Ive been to spring training several times and been to home and road games on a regular basisas well as seen the farm teams from A to AAA. Ive followed this team since the mid 70s thank you.
I was very optimisitc. Theyve gone over 18 inninngs without a run. Thats a problem.
Ive seen it before.

Guilty. I admit it, regular season is way to long to hold my interest and I watch very little of it, now that I got that out of the way......
"So game 5 is pretty much a cub lock" is what everyone probably thought last night with Arietta vs. Hill, and that didn't work out so well.
"I could see it if Kershaw was locked in for game 4 & 7" I think the chances are better he will pitch in both, than not. EDIT-I know he isn't starting tonight, but a relief role isn't out of the cards is what I meant. Though doubtful I know. But for an inning or two if needed?
"For all you "fall baseball fans" the Dodgers can't hit lefty pitching". Dodgers shouldn't even be here, any game they win without Kershaw on the hill is a bonus, they have zero pressure on them and are at home for the next two games.
Called a Dodger series win before the first pitch was thrown in this series and my son and I have been having a great time watching, as he is rooting for the Cubs. While I'm not a Dodger fan, anytime I can win something versus my son and hold it over him the way a good dad should, I'm pretty happy.
The pressure flips so fast from Chicago to LA. Lester will be favored tomorrow and if he delivers it forces the Dodgers to take the final 2 on the road. Certainly can happen but you can see why the baseball playoffs are so exciting.I'm not a fan of either team, but they didn't get to the NLCS by accident. Dodgers absolutely had to win when Kershaw was on the mound, and did. Cubs had to get at least one win in LA, and did. Won't be surprised to see this series go the distance.
Not enough.I wonder how many Cubs fans get hospitalized in the parking lot tonight.
Its one of the reasons I didnt go...that and the 5 pm start time....I went to a playoff game a few years back and the entire row behind me was arrested in the 6th inning it was uglyI wonder how many Cubs fans get hospitalized in the parking lot tonight.
Dodgers won't have a chance with this extended zone for Lester. That makes him extra deadly.

After living through '15, '03, '89, & '84, I'll continue to hold my breath with this run like I have before. Always a little hopeful yet ridiculously cautious, waiting for something to go wrong because it always does. I've been kicked in the pills too many times...
I do love how this team is set up for the future though with a lot of youth. Go Cubs!
Agree. Too many times they have found a way to lose. Kershaw and Hill are unbeaten in the post season this year, and the Cubs are still the Cuns until they prove otherwise.
That being said, Hendricks and Arrietta arent slouches. Maddon makes very few boneheaded moves unlike some previous managers.
Have to win one of two, but I still say the Dodgers are the favorite based on pitching alone. Im hoping Kershaw runs out of gas or Hill reverts to his old form
