That's the Cardinals' first losing streak in more than three weeks.

It happened before I started watching, but 1/3 K's was Martinez.

So the Cardinals now lead the Pirates by 3.5 games and the Cubs by 6.5 games.  A few weeks ago, it looked like the division race was pretty much over...but with so many games left between the three teams, it's starting to become an interesting race again.

Kershaw may get the CY again with 13 or so wins if this continues. He's had one shaky start since the break against Pittsburgh. These are his numbers over the other six starts.

The Dodgers have benched Joc Pederson who is hitting .122 this month. He does have a .413 OBP in August due to 20 walks.

Wouldn't prefer to face a lefty if we make it to that one game playoff.  Bumgarner/Liriano seems to be bad news for Schwarber, Montero, Coughlan.  Maybe a slight bump to Fowler.

Do we hope the Pirates catch the Cards if we can't?

I'd like to see the Pirates overtake the Cardinals.  I think Cole is the second best starter in the NL Central, only behind Arrieta.  And the Pirates are a better hitting team than the Cardinals.  So I'll take my chances against the weaker hitting team with a non-Cole starter.

Plus, it would be pretty satisfying to send the Cardinals home after one playoff game.  Beating the Pirates wouldn't be nearly as fun.

Pirates beat the Giants.  Cubs lead over the Giants (6 games) is now almost as big as the Cardinals lead over the Cubs (6.5 games).

Bad Clubs Tidbits

The six worst records in MLB are National League clubs.

Rockies have tied Marlins and Phillies for worst record. 

Reds have lost nine straight and are now only two games better than Rockies, Marlins, and Phillies.

Rockies, Marlins, and Phillies are each 22 games behind the Cubs.

Welington Castillo just homered to give the Diamondbacks a 1-0 lead over the Cardinals.
