NL Wildcard: Colorado Rockies at Chicago Cubs

Who wins?

Strangely enough, I think the Rockies. I wonder how much of a letdown after having NL best record much of the year arises.

A week ago, most would have put their money on the Cubs being in the World series, imagine if they get bounced tonight? Epic fail!

They haven't exactly had the best times over the last few weeks on/off the field. I'm in no way defending the allegations against Addison Russell but I find the timing to be a bit strange for when the victim decided she was ready to cooperate with MLB.

Have to say, these DBL Switches seem like overmanaging. You voluntarily pulled your best hitter in a tied elimination game when it looks like extra innings is certain.

Baez will lead Cubs to win.

I like when Cubs fans are sad.

I understand the managerial decisions from a Strategy stand point. However, sometimes you’ve got to use common sense and understand what type of game you’re in. This was a very tight, low scoring game and both mgrs pulled (arguably) their best hitters.

People were b1tching about the NL rules (no DH) but imo stuff like this is what makes managers earn their $.
