Predict the Brewers July's Record

[stalton]

We used to do this back when the Brewers were more competitive and since they are being competitive, I figured we could give this a shot.

25 games.

 

2 Miami 1-1

3 Baltimore 2-1

1 @ Chubs 0-1

3 @ NY Yankees 2-1

3 Philly 1-2

4 @ Pitt 2-2

3 @ Philly 1-2

3 @ Washington 2-1

3 Chubs 2-1

 

That puts my guess at 13 and 12. What's your prediction?

[Outlander]

15-10

[wildcat83]

10-15

[Lathund]

11-14.

[KeithStone53151]

16-9

[Dragonbait]

25 - 0!!!!

 

Oh wait. This isn't the optimism thread.

 

14 - 11

[Ennder]

I'll go with 14-11 with Braun sparking the offense and Thames starting to hit again. Then in August we will see a complete collapse.

[MDCrew]

12-13 pretty tough schedule.

[pitchleague]

11-14

[owbc]

I like the odds of the HR hitting picking up again with the hot summer weather. I'll take 13-12, 2-2 vs. the Cubs. One game back of the Cubs going into August.

[AKCheesehead]

14-11 I'm predicting they take 5/6 vs Philly.

[Roderick]

11-14

 

Edit for Anderson

[kalle8]

13-12 but I think I'm optimistic

[nate82]

2 Miami 0-2

3 Baltimore 1-2

1 @ Cubs 0-1

3 @ NY Yankees 0-3

3 Philly 2-1

4 @ Pitt 1-3

3 @ Philly 3-0

3 @ Washington 0-3

3 Cubs 0-3

 

7-18 in July. Let down in Miami starts the month off on a sour note ending with 0-6 record versus the Nationals and the Cubs at the end of July. Brewers are behind the Cubs still in 2nd somehow by 8 games.

2 Miami 1-1

3 Baltimore 1-2

1 @ Cubs 0-1

3 @ NY Yankees 1-2

3 Philly 2-1

4 @ Pitt 2-1

3 @ Philly 2-1

3 @ Washington 1-2

3 Cubs 2-1

 

I have 12-12. Cubs, Nats, Yankees, O's, and Pitt has been tough for Crew. If they escape even, that's a win. Biggest thing, avoid all sweeps.

 

14-10 is about as good as I can see happening.

 

8-16 worst case... maybe a benefit though, get people away from thought of us buying at deadline. Keep us on the plan.

[RobDeer 45]

10-15

 

I think they will have bad month or two this summer but rebound from it.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

2 vs. MIA (1-1)

3 vs. BAL (2-1)

1 @ CHC (1-0)

3 @ NYY (1-2)

3 vs. PHI (2-1)

4 @ PIT (1-3)

3 @ PHI (2-1)

3 @ WAS (0-3)

3 vs. CHC (2-1)

 

12-13 for July.

 

The road trips to Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Washington will be the make-or-break part of the month. I've got them going 3-7 during that period. Gain a split against the Pirates, sweep the Phillies, and pick up an unexpected win over the Nationals, and the month could be 14-11.

[Boomer5]

Losing Anderson for what I have heard is at least a month isn't going to help.

[Gormans sideburns]

11-14

2 Miami 1-1

3 Baltimore 1-2

1 @ Chubs 0-1

3 @ NY Yankees 0-3

3 Philly 2-1

4 @ Pitt 2-2

3 @ Philly 2-1

3 @ Washington 0-3

3 Chubs 1-2

 

9-16. This bullpen is horrendous. Late in-game managing is horrendous. Just feels like a team that seems to find ways to lose 1 run ball games for a few days then win 10-2.

 

Cubs have it relatively easy in July and go 14-10. Brewers 4.5GB come August 1st.

 

If the Brewers can somehow manage to stay 2GB or less come August 1st, they got a chance to get to September square and make it interesting. Cubs have a devilish stretch from August 1 through 18 or so.

[torts]

11-10 so far

[Ennder]

11-10 so far

 

 

My complete collapse starting in August prediction started a half month too soon I guess~.

[stalton]

Talk about a roller coaster month. All in all, July's record ended up being 12 and 13. We had guesses from 9 and 16 to 16 and 9 with 2 people guessing 12 and 13 correctly (MDcrew and ReverendBrewmeister). I'll get August's prediction up later today.

[owbc]

I wish we had alternated wins/losses then entire month rather than this awful rollercoaster.

Not as bad as I predicted. Off by 2 Games. 2.5GB and have a chance to be square come September 1 given Cubs difficult August.
