The Rich Hill ERA begins.
This should be a very evenly matched game. Should be exciting.
First chance Cubs fans have to go up north and attack Milwaukee.

So it's only now beginning? The 123 previous innings were a mulligan?

Not a chance in hell. The Brewers have enough problems keeping those FIBs out of Miller Park. Atanasio would never allow that to happen under his watch.
With that said, I expect the FIBs to be out in full force with a percentage of 65 percent FIBS and 35 percent Brewer fans.

We will just have to take 2 outta 3 to shut them up.

I hate the cubs soooo much.

Losing to them at home is the worst.

Crew win this one and proceed to take 2 out of 3. (Cubs manage to steal the third game in the 9th inning)

We are a vastly superior team on all fronts.

Yay, this will be the first Brewers game this year I will be able to actually see! :). I think they will be 2 for 3 in this series too. But, I think they will lose the first game(Cause im watching it). But we shall see:P

The Cubs have three hitters who are far better than any batter on the Brewers. On all fronts?

3?

I can count maybe two. Granted we arent paying 25 mil a year for them either. Oh and I surely would take the Brewers roster any day over the Cubs.

We'll compare Lee, Ramirez, Soriano, Fielder, and Hall at the end of the year and see what the rankings are. I highly doubt that all 3 Cubs will be ranked ahead of both those 2.

And I don't think you, or anyone for that matter, will argue that our rotation is far superior, and we have a better set up man and closer.

When it all comes down to it, I'll take the Brewers roster over the Cubs, as I think most would, mainly because of the pitching.

And when Braun comes up, you're not going to want any piece of the Brewers lineup either...

Ok, so the Cubs overpaid for a couple good batters, big deal. How's Kerry Wood doing? How's Mark Prior doing? What's Zambrano's attitude?

Cubs pitching staff is an absolute joke. Brewers have one of the best staffs in the league.

Our whole pitching staff, from bullpen to starters just kills the cubs.
