"Their quest to repeat begins in earnest in LA" 

What in the actual freak does that mean????

[Vega]

Poop.

[sph274]

god damn it. really thought we were gonna win a series this year. god damn it. that lobaton freaking pickoff was ridiculous. werth shoudl have been on the bench the whole series. Dusty needs to be gone

[tzinc]

davis was pitching on fumes they were swinging at balls

[raleighnat]

At least agony is over

[GoodOmens]

Cool. So we will ignore blatant rules (e.g., back swing interference ) to allow the cubbies to advance?

[KV]

The Captionals

[nattily attired]

See ya next year, folks.

[Natsinpwc]

If Dusty had just gotten his ass out of the dugout in that inning Max pitched they would have had a chance. They let it get away.

Time to trade Harper. We have Eaton and Robles. And Michael A.

[natbomber]

sooooo many mistakes. if we were even somewhat competent, we'd be spraying champagne right now...

[Leroy Veritas]

Tonight is on Werth's complete inability to play defense. The series is on the idiot manager not being about to bench a guy who can't play anymore and rewarding him for sucking by moving him up in the lineup.

[tzinc]

this team wont be blown up and dusty will be back they will win 99 games nect year and lose in the first round

dodgers must be salivating

both teams and managers made mistakes but the umps favoured cubs

[sph274]

this wasnt a WS team. This series loss is on the offense, on the corpse of WErth, and Dusty for not playing matchups. Say bye to Werth and Dusty, please

[SkinsNatFan21RIP]

I think I'm actually fine with Bryce leaving. I've had enough of him swinging at pitches in the dirt in clutch situations.

[mitlen]

That's the same crap Harper was swingin' at in 2012.

It's always good to blame the refs but they have no one to blame but themselves. No reason to pitch Max that early on 2 days rest. And having Werth in there cost them several runs tonight and probably game three.

[skippy1999]

I'm so sad

[sph274]

Bryce is a great player but i dont think it will make sense for us to sign him to a huge deal. Hopefully Robles can be the next face of the franchise

We had tons of chances to win this. Just couldn’t get it done.

[StrutnCrow]

see ya dusty, see ya werth, see bryce (soon)

[The Chief]

That's the same crap Harper was swingin' at in 2012.

Not one damn thing has changed.  Not one.

[mmzznnxx]

Worst part is next year when we're about to choke again is all the idiots will yet again be saying "No way, this year is different, you guys are horrible fans for not believing."

[mitlen]

I'm so sad

Grandkids'll be up in 6 hours.
