Cubs acquired Daniel Murphy from The Nationals

Really solid get.

 

[The Dog]

Murphy absolutely killed the Cubs in the '15 NLCS. I've despised him ever since, but that changes now

 

[VolsSportsFan]

The offense is pretty pathetic right now.

 

[The Dog]

Now that Murphy is on my team, I love him. Gigantic pick up, just like Hamels, so far. Murphy reminds me of the hard-nosed, professional hitter that just knows how to win, easy to like and root for when his own your team and despise when he is playing against u. Baez and Murphy hit homers, today and Quintana and the Cubs led 6-2 around the 6th. Need this win
Edit: Kyle Schwarber homered, too.

 

[The Dog]

Cubs win ! 10-6. Lester, Hamels and Hendricks/Quintana combo in the playoffs are going to be money. The hitting is heating back up. Murphy is almost the perfect addition to this team. I feel good about winning the NL pennant. Couple of teams in the AL scare me. Boston and Houston. But, I'll take my chances with the Cubs.

On a good stretch right now

Magic Number 28.

Bwaa-ha-ha, Cubs win, Braves lose

Lose tonight and we're tied with the Brewers for the division lead.

Yeah, huge game tonight. Go Cubs

 

[The Dog]

Cubs win! Quintana was dealing for about 7 innings and the pen closed the door. Gigantic win

 

[The Dog]

Cubs down 2-1 against the Brewers in the 7th. Really need to come back and win this game

Cubs hitting is pretty bad

The pitching isn't that much better. Hamel has been the only consistent starter since the AS Break.

yep right now I dont like their chances of even making the WC -- rest of the schedule is brutal

 

[The Dog]

Nice win today against the Nats. Hope Strop's hamstring don't land him on the DL.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

A sweep of the Reds would be YUGE.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Didn't get the sweep and the offense struggled most of the series, but Brewers lost last night and today so MN 11.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

MN 10.

Man Morrow is done for the year, his bone bruise has not healed.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

MN 8.
