Balt vs Cubs........ in game play ball

Crazy but at the moment lean to San Francisco.  Also leans to Toronto and Atlanta.  Stroman may bounceback at home and is good on extended rest, problem is Smyly for TB is also on his best rest...  Maybe Minor has fixed himself a bit...  Nothing set at all though.

Need huge stop here. A run here hurts deeply

It's been frustrating because this year's offense for my White Sox has been the best in several years in my opinion.  Sadly our pitching, which over the years I've viewed pretty consistent overall, has fallen off.  Behind Sale we don't have anything scary at all.  Danks I think might be done, the injuries have taken their toll.  Quintana can still be wild with controlling his pitch count.  Noesi is a throw away in my opinion, maybe a good #5 on a team at best but our staff needs more from him.  I really like the offensive additions of Eaton, Abreu, and Garcia (who just came back from his injury).  Dunn has to go, and Konerko is gracefully ending his career.  Glad that we finally dumped Beckham, it wasn't working out and we couldn't wait any longer on him...time for us to move on.  He'll be a good utility guy for the Angels as they make their postseason run though.

2 out base hit..Cubs 4-1.  That run is huge.  Would've hurt bigtime if for the 2nd time today Cubs wasted a runner on 3rd with less than 2 outs

You might be the only other person I know that likes San Francisco with me. I think today we find out if Hudson really has anything left in the tank this year.  Lean Atlanta but the opener of Cincy around -130 baffled me.  Could really be based on Minor's overall performance for the year and not taking into account enough his last performance/possible fixing himself.

Hudson has been solid and Nats cant keep winning walk-offs? Nats are due to lose and Giants are scoring some runs past few. Minor was solid against a slumping A's team? When Braves get hot they are scary. My biggest play of the day is Yanks -1

Cubs bullpen much improved but still don't trust them

Perfect example of the inconsistency of the Cubs bp.  4 pitch walk. 3 pitch strikeout.

Go Yard

I have yet to see the bullpen go 123 late. Always walk people
