Dying at the Brewers just hanging Lauer out to dry here. He looks like he would have a tough time pitching in AA right now.

Cubs eliminated. What a shame.

Any chance the Marlins and D-Backs both want the 6 seed to avoid a potential matchup with the Braves in round 2? Arizona's magic number of shame to clinch the 6 seed is 1.

I really didn't want Arizona, but they'll be the matchup unless they win and the Marlins lose twice.

Gallen threw 103 pitches on Friday and Kelly threw 93 yesterday. I don't think they'll be back for games 1 and 2 on three days' rest in this day and age, but you never know.

Would have much preferred the Marlins.
