Adam Wainwright - 17 wins. Coincidence. I think not. This season reminds of 1985 when you could just sense a story developing.

These stats may get old, but I love them.

If the Cards go 10-16 to finish out the year, the cubs would have to go 24-3 to win the division.

The Cubs ceased being relevant in 2009 a while ago.

Has to be. KC has the worst record in the AL.

Yeah, I don't even look to see who in the central is winning or losing anymore. I check to see what philly and LAD are doing...

And yeah, the ending to the story will be different. Don isn't an umpire anymore.

But, Angel Hernandez might be a WS umpire this year.

Why MLB keeps putting him in the playoffs I'll never understand.

The guy purposefully blows a play or two each game.
