I’m going to traveling home today after visiting with my brother – who came to Chicago from Texas for tonight’s NLCS game … thanks, universe – so I don’t know how much I’ll be able to get to. Might be a lighter day than usual, but you’re probably still shaking off the sads anyway.
Looks like the Cubs are going to lose Derek Johnson, their minor league pitching coordinator. He's about to be named Brewers pitching coach.

David Wright will be given third base used at Wrigley Field tonight. Class move by @Cubs for @mets captain. pic.twitter.com/wHmE4AWs4B

I even said it this morning, but until it slaps me in the face I can't accept it: baseball will not play the story you want to tell.

God bless Cubs fans. They're still clapping. Cheering. Believing. Hoping.

You spend years telling yourself the playoffs are a bullshit, flukey exercise.
And then you have to live them. It hurts.

Passerby as I walk somberly: "Don't look so sad, man. It was designed like that."
Don't know what to do w/that. But he might be right.
