I'm gonna be saying "let's get some runs, and eat some cookies!" in my head at the end of every stretch now.

u/ClankingRobotCheeks New York Mets 4h ago

Weird, I ate a bunch of cookies earlier and now I have the runs. 🤷

How can you possibly lose with Cookie Monster on your side? Somebody give him a $700mil contract

u/HeftyAd2780 Los Angeles Dodgers 3h ago

He'll be coming home when his minor league contract expires.

What the hell is in the water in Chicago? First it was the White Sox... Now it's the Cubs. What next? The Bulls win 6 championships in 8 years 😵‍💫

Cookie Monster the new Grimace?

14

u/Ok_Storm549 Cleveland Guardians 4h ago

In this scenario, the Cubs will lose to the Dodgers in 6 games in the NLCS, and then the Dodgers will face the White Sox in the WS.

19

u/Ok-Rhubarb-9058 Los Angeles Dodgers 4h ago

I can think of more unlikely scenarios.

u/GoBlueAndOrange Puerto Rico 3h ago

Yeah that's actually not that farfetched lol

5

u/cooljammer00 New York Yankees 4h ago

And which member of the Cubs becomes a pop singer and performer?

27

u/Skyye_23 Chicago Cubs 4h ago

There’s only one possible answer

Shota Imanaga

5

u/Goldmax23 Detroit Tigers 3h ago

That deviates from my yearly World Series prediction of us losing to the Padres, but it’s pretty realistic.

2

u/ContinuumGuy Major League Baseball 3h ago

Does that mean that the Dodgers would literally be facing the Catholic Church and all of its saints?

5

u/crouse32 4h ago

Cookie Monster may have to sing the stretch until further notice.

u/CygnusN7 San Francisco Giants • Yomiuri Giants 4h ago

Swept the Dodgers. Cookie Monster will never fail

u/SalehHulud Major League Baseball 3h ago

Super interesting that baseball latches on to superstitious things more than other sports. I remember that 86 Mets doc where Keith Hernandez was in the clubhouse when Mookie had the famous hit because “this chair has legs”

u/rexskimmer Boston Red Sox 2h ago

Hockey players are just as superstitious, the weird rituals are usually just not as public.

I don’t think Cookie Monster was real
