Cubs Blog

That is right baseball fans the cubs have swept the Milwaukee Brewers with today's victory over the brewers nine to six. The cubs scored nine runs on 14 hits without causing an error. The Brewers on the other hand scored six runs on 6 hits with 2 errors in the game. Kris Bryant went on a terror going five for five with two home runs and five RBI’s the Chicago cubs have moved to 14-2 the best in august for MLB Teams. The Cubs are on a four game winning streak after losing two out of four games against the St.Louis Cardinals with today's win puts them 13 games above the cardinals in the central division, the cardinals are also on a four game win streak as well as the Pittsburgh Pirates.

18-3 over their last 21 games that is the best 21-game stretch by a Cubs team since 1945, that is amazing to me to see a state like that being mentioned by the cubs. I think the Chicago Cubs are going to do things in this year's playoffs, now the playoffs is going to be scary for me because the American League own the rights to home field advantage in the world series.

This is where the Major League All Star Game value SUCKS in my opinion because home field advantage shouldn’t be decided in an All-Star Game. Could the Major League Baseball officials please stop doing the Home field Advantage in the All-Star Game, if they want to give home field advantage it should be the team that has the best record in baseball belong to the winning league then that when you can have the advantage work. So let's say for example the Chicago White Sox decide that they can make a run for the playoffs and make it to the world series, since the American League won the All-Star Game they have the right to Home field advantage over a team that could have had the best record in baseball have home field advantage.

Tommy La Stella accepted his demotion to the minors, which is going to piss him off even more because if he would have not acted like a nog and diva he could have already been brought back up when Chris Coghlan was put on the Disabled List. La Stella was sent down to the Double A team after his refusal to accept his demotion to the Triple A team in Iowa. now he has to work back up the Iowa team before getting back up to the cubs roster. Their is still a chance that he could be brought up for the playoff roster when the playoffs start. I honestly think that the cubs might not even need him in the postseason, i would rather have another pitcher in the bullpen then having La Stella bat on the bench, even though you can say that he could be used as a pitch runner or pitch hitter in certain cases depending on the situation.
