by Greek Giant The Cubs are playing like a bunch of sissies. They are one more embarrassing loss away from elimination. Their (lack of) hitting this postseason is historic for all the wrong reasons. The Yankees have made things interesting in the American League.
by Greek Giant I think the Cubs are in trouble. The Yankees made the series interesting yesterday. When does Spring Training 2018 start?
by Greek Giant The Dodgers eeked out another win. If the Cubs don’t start hitting it won’t matter what decisions Maddon makes. Blaming last night’s loss on him is silly actually. Their offense has been mostly awful this postseason and the only reason they advanced past the Walgreens is because…
by Greek Giant I hate to say it but this just might be the Dodgers’ year. They seem to be cruising and catching all the breaks, so far. Despite Corey Seager’s injurty, the Dodgers keep finding ways to win. I have zero confidence in the Cubs and their ability to…

by Greek Giant Everyone can admit it: This was supposed to be the year the Astros and Indians faced off in an epic ALCS. I thought so anyway. The Yankees, however, had other plans. They’re excellent starting pitching and home run-hitting prowess unseated the Indians who froze in the headlights…
by Greek Giant This could be an interesting game, one that re-shapes the career of Gio Gonzalez. The Cubs are batting .159 this series. That’s really the story so far. The winner of this game gets the chance to thwack the Dodgers in the National League Championship Series.
by Greek Giant There are two big games on the schedule today. The Walgreens face the prospect of another humiliating upchuck all over themselves playoff exit in the early rounds after being the National League’s most dominant team. The drama surrounding Strasburg and Dusty’s will he or won’t he pitch…
by Greek Giant The game is in rain delay and the Walgreens need a win to force the decisive fifth game.
I could easily spend the entire day watching four games. Anyone who complains about the pace or duration of baseball games and neglects football (both college and NFL) has no credibility. On Saturday I suffered through 3 3/4 hours of the Gators LSU game. The stoppages, commercials, and bogus time…
