Dodgers don’t scare me.  Brewers will have to play them either Monday or Tuesday.

?
If Milwaukee is playing on Monday, it's the tiebreaker in Chicago for the division. If the Dodgers are playing Monday, it's either against Colorado for the division or St. Louis for WC2.

In a perfect world, Brewers win 1 or 0, Rockies get swept, Dodgers take 1, and St. Louis takes 2. That gives the Cubs the Central and sets up Rockies/Dodgers for the West on Monday with the loser playing St. Louis Tuesday for the right to play Milwaukee in a delayed Wild Card game. When it's not my team, I'll take high-stakes single games all week please.

Sorry... Tuesday or Thursday.  Assumes Dodgers do not win the West, in which case the Brewers will play them as the other wild card (Thursday) or as the Division Winner with the best record who plays the WC winner (Thursday).

That scenario is wild.

Also, seven years ago to the day was the best regular season finish in all of professional sports.

Tigers are 3-7 in their last 10 and they are starting 2 guys with ERAs over 5 in the series.  They are basically trying to move into the 3rd spot in the draft.  That would be a completely shocking outcome.

I think the perfect scenario would be the Brewers and Cubs tying for the NL Central, the Dodgers and Rockies tying for the NL West, and both of those teams tied with the Cards.  Doesn't seem plausible at all, but heck, the craziness would be fun.

While drew's is fun, I make the odds at a Crew/Cubs grudge match on Monday at 50/50.  STL pulls out all the stops and wins 2 while the Crew sweeps a team that is essentially tanking.

Don't get me wrong.  I want the Cubs to lose.  But it does give me a wee bit of joy to see the Cardinals imploding at the end of the year.

For those of us on the opposite end of the spectrum, that was a clutch Sox loss. They own the tiebreaker with Miami for the third pick and now can pick no lower than 6.

Well, 1 down, 2 to go.   The only possible way I see the Tigers winning one is a gem from Zimmerman tonight.  He's not a stud, but he used to be a great pitcher and he's from Wisconsin, so maybe that is something.

Good response by the Cubs today.  Feel good about Hamels at home tomorrow given how good he has been at Wrigley.  Montgomery vs Flaherty on Sunday is the worry.  2 wins in 9 starts, and those were the only two games he made it out of the 6th, yeesh.

I think that's Glow's point. I think he thinks the most likely outcome is the Crew wins outright, followed by a playoff, followed by the Cubs winning outright.

Unless their bullpen explodes in the final frame the Cubs are going to get a big W today. I am pretty confident the Crew will sweep. It all comes down these final 2 against the Cards. I think we're heading for a tie.

The Tigers are basically a AAA team.   They have terrible hitting.    Gardenhire will not let them quit.

Yeli and Braunie took care of that pretty quickly.

I know you Cubs fans hate Ryan but he's getting really hot at a critical time.  If only he could stay healthy at this stage of his career.
