I wonder how many times the Cubs have rolled through the order the first time without a single hit this season. Feels like it’s happened a lot.
Darvish may be the ace they need, but Hendricks is the ace they got.
And quite frankly, I'd still bet most teams still in the hunt would have no qualms about Quintana, Lester and Hamels in their rotation too. Three quality lefties can be mighty valuable to have come playoff time, depending on the opponent.
When I think of playoff starters regarding the Cubs' 5 guys, Darvish is probably last on that list.

The Washington Nationals are the second best team/roster in the NL. They had a perfect storm of awful defense/baserunning/injuries in April/May, but have since gotten back on course.
Might not be enough to catch ATL, but the Nats are better than any of the teams in the NL Central.

What I said. Scared the dog so bad she ran down from the other end of the couch afraid I was mad at her.
As a Braves fan, I say screw the Cubs. I wanted you rat f’ers to help the Braves pad their lead in the East this weekend and they are crapping the bed.
By your logic, the Padres are better than the Cardinals as they have gone 4-2 against them this year.
If KB just keeps the glove on the bag, Parra had no chance.
This home plate ump SUCKS. And since Charlotte is a suburb of DC, apparently, I'm in blackout zone and my only option on TV is the Nats awful crew. Ever since Happ got tossed, the color guy keeps highlighting every call against the Cubs saying they angered HP ump Carpazzi.
It's a stupid hot take....because if it were true, he'd have to be fired today.
True. In the old days ( B4 replay ) if the ball beat the runner to the bag, likely out. Not anymore, especially sliding past the bag or briefly coming off with the tag applied. HP ump has been shaky all day for sure...
There’s nothing left to do. We have been grasping at straws since 2017 and come up almost empty. It’s over.
This is not a complete baseball team and there is no quick fix.
I fell asleep after the 7th inning stretch, and just woke up to the replay of the game. So.... Waste of my time to watch the rest of it?
I had a weird dream at some point in my nap about getting a foot long hot dog and some chocolate chip and oatmeal cookie dough at the grocery store in the small town in Indiana my wife was born in. What does that mean?
And, never mind the replay. The Blues Brothers is on HBO.

I listened to the game while doing yard work.
They sucked ... again.
Terrible effort; don’t seem to give a fvck about the outcome. Just resting on their World Series laurels.
The homer Nats color guy continued to comment throughout the rest of the game about HW the Nats were getting every break in the strike zone....not that it likely would have mattered.
