Series Thread: NLDS: Chicago Cubs vs. St. Louis Cardinals

[bksballer89]

Going to ask again. Why was Garcia starting?

 

[bksballer89]

Productive outs cubs please. 4 runs is nothing to the Cards

I think the entire country is asking this question. Why not Lynn? Why not Wacha?

Infield ground out 6-1 Cubs

Cause the cubs were never going to win just ask this board

Wacha has been awful against the Cubs and in the past month. Lynn fades down the stretch every year. Garcia usually pitches better in STL throughout his whole career.

STLs pitchings whole idea is to keep the ball down and Chicago is making them look silly today

Bingo Garcia has been the better pitcher

Cubs seem to be the only team in the league driving in runs off the Cards this year on a regular basis

That's not a good thing with Big Jake and Lester pitching in 2 of the next 3 games

Is he? I am not so sure given his Babip and HR/FB% are below his career norms. Maybe I am the only one here not particularly sold on Garcia.

Cardinals will have to get their runs off the Cubs bullpen.

Carlos Martinez would almost certainly be starting this game if he was healthy. The Cubs got to him once earlier in the year, too, though. Oddly enough, the Cards came back and won

 

[bravesfan1]

I think they would rather have Garcia pitch when leading the series, then in chicago with a tied series, or down 2 games to 1

I'm not either

cardinals trying to make a game of it

That's not usually a problem, unfortunately.

 

[Beaker]

You can stop fucking around anytime Cubbies

 

[HammerDown]

The ChiCubs need insurance runs.

 

[bksballer89]

can't overturn that
