isn't the the flip side of this question? they knew they were gonna have the best record in the NL for several weeks, and that the team with the worst record would be whoever came out of the west. at most, they would have had to assign scouts to the dodgers and d-backs.
sounds like an excuse to me...
the cubs choked -- as a team. they're also missing a truly fearsome hitter in their lineup, someone like, ummm -- what's that guy's name? oh yeah -- manny ramirez.
speaking of the sox, there's trouble in beantown. pedroia and ortiz aren't hitting, beckett doesn't look right, and suddenly they're in a must-win game this evening.
