They clinched the WIld Card but we still have a huge home stand against Detroit that we need a sweep or at least take the series and get some help from the Cards. I am the biggest St. Louis fan at the moment.

I think you had mentioned about what the precedence was? I think we can look at the suspensions doled out to Chapman and Osuna as indicators.
But, Russell is finished as a Cub, I don't see how they'll bring him back. He's still a good SS/2B so, we'll see if a team will take a flyer on him sometime later if he's reinstated? Dunno. Given the #metoo movement, having this sort of player on a team could be toxic.

Yeah Brinson is supposed to be the 5 tool stud. So far not showing much but Marlins can't possibly do a worse trade than the Miguel Cabrera trade for nothing that performed here.
@ Cubs...

I was rooting for the Yankees since NY has become my 2nd home. This was my first baseball that I watched this year but only like 3 innings. Mind you I was at a Marlins game this year but in the bar/club. But Jesus baseball. I turn on the game at 9 it's in the 3rd inning. I watch a few 1-2-3 innings and then fall asleep for like 30 mins. I turn off the TV at 10 and it's the bottom of the fifth. 3 innings an hour?

I actually watched from the 5th inning until the end of the game. I'm on the west coast, but, it still ended around 9. My kids were watching it too and I'm like it's time for you guys to go to bed, but they wanted to watch it until the end.

Brewers winning it all... To go from a team that looked like it had zero chance to start to a team that is firing on all cylinders has been a fun season. Hate for it to end short of a Championship. Either Hou/Bos will be a tough series but lets get thru LA first.
