Hopefully, the walk off grand slam makes up for the fact that Bote is going bald at 25. But I don't think so

Crazy win...

Scherzer dominates them for 7 innings
Maddon IBB Harper with runners on corners, loads bases to go after hot hitting Zimmerman..
That Backfires
3 zip Nationals

Cubs 9th..
Infield single , 2 hit batters loads the bases..

Bote Slam, saves his team and manager

Cole Hamels was fantastic tonight, staying with Scherzer

Good series win, now they need to take care of the Brewers and hold off the hot Cardinals

You know, as a kid you're always dreaming of that exact scenario. Down 3, bottom of the 9th, 2 out and the bases loaded...I'll bet Bote did it as well. Then he gets to play it for real....how cool is that?

And the single was not a hit. It is inexplicable that the scorer called that a hit.

fangraphs 25 percentile for the cubs win total projection is 91 with 75 percentile being 96. For the brewers they have 85 and 90. So, using those as guide posts the cubs need 23 more wins or they need whatever losses the Brewers take over 71. Going 23-22 seems fairly manageable and that's just to win the division. Also, that Hamels trade looks like insane value right now. He'd already produced more fwar in his first 2 starts than he did with texas. This third start probably pushes him close to double the value he'd produced prior.

and LaStella still deserves this roster spot when Morrow and KB return.
