Official 2023 Chicago Cubs Season Thread Vol: (17-17)

Top 7, Edwards coming in.

Lester was great thru 6, 90 pitches. Possible he could get 2-3 in a game 7.

3-2, need the pen to be lights out, same as theirs has been.

Schwarber will PH to start next inning I'm guessing, Fowler/Bryant/Rizzo follow.
 
W.

Game 6, Schwarber back in the lineup, Arrieta on the mound with full rest.

112 wins on the season.
 
Wrigley closed for the 2016 season with a World Series victory. :pimp:

Cubs will play November baseball in 48 hours.

Contreras and Schwarber should be in the lineup.

Just need one final 2015 start from Arrieta to get us to game 7.....
 
2!

get it to 7. need jake the snake to be nasty tomorrow. it has been quite a series. and now bam bam is back in the line up with an ace up our sleeves. :smokin
 
Sounds like Schwarber will bat 2nd, Bryant 3rd, with Rizzo/Zobrist 4/5. :pimp:

Could possibly mean more at bats for Schwarber before Miller gets in. Least I think that's what it means.

My overall goal is, we need to get to a 5th plate appearance for the big 3 no matter what, if we do that, we could be in for a good night.

Weather a non factor, it's 75 degrees right now, will drop a bit during the night of course, but won't be all that old like it was last week.
 
Fowler CF
Schwarber DH
Bryant 3B
Rizzo 1B
Zobrist LF
Russell SS
Contreras C
Heyward RF
Baez 2B

Arrieta P

WTF is Maddon doing!?!??

I understand Chap is a very expensive rental and we gave up a lot to get him but you can't keep stretching him out there.

Especially with a big lead like this! Save him for tomorrow!!
 
Win tonight.

Figure out tomorrow, tomorrow.

(And remember, Lester will be available after Hendricks)
