2018-09-04: Cubs (Montgomery) at Brewers (Miley) 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 11-1]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I think it might be Matt Albers time now.

[Matt Breen]

The first 5 innings of this game went so quickly. Not so with the last two.

 

September baseball at its finest.

 

I've never seen your signature before. Crom appreciates it. He laughs at your four winds

Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge against the Cubs and Cardinals! And if you do not listen, then the HELL with you!

[DuWayne Steurer]

Man, pour it on here. Burn up every reliever in that pen.

[MrTPlush]

And here we are setting ourselves up for the biggest game of the year. Won’t get much more important than tomorrow for a regular season game.

[Matt Breen]

cain with four walks today.

[dlk9s]

I think we can go to the bullpen scrubs now.

[TURBO]

So want Braun to hit a 3 run dinger right here...

[PinaMadness]

Trade Perez to the Cubs right now and he can pitch for them.

[lcbj68c]

I'd love to think that the reason the game tomorrow is a night game on getaway day, is to stick it to the Cubs for their shenanigans with "rainouts" etc.

 

Wouldn't surprise me and I hope it would play a role. That said, with the kids back in school, I have to imagine they hope for a better draw on a weekday night.

[wildcat83]

Trea Turner was thrown out at second after Bryce Harper walked tonight. I didn’t know that was possible.

Absolutely. It's all cumulative. I know they have a ton of arms down there and won't have to use their best pitchers anyways, but it all helps...even if it's simply destroying confidence in these crappy aaa arms that were somehow getting outs in the first 2 months of the season.

[Matt Breen]

8 walks. That must just give the manager an ulcer.

[MrTPlush]

Trade Perez to the Cubs right now and he can pitch for them.

 

Isn’t he catching for them tonight? Sure looks like it.

[LouisEly]

Yep, time to empty the bench.

[tmwiese55]

Righty P tomorrow so you'll see both Shaw and Moose. Maybe Schoop since he's been out two in a row but who knows with him. Braun would be up in the air too, could see them go with Grandy. You know Counsel is gonna love his veteran-ness. But lefty and all too. Personally I just go with Braun.

[markedman5]

It's no fluke the way Miley has been throwing the ball

 

[Fear The Chorizo]

This is now aaaa scrub or position player reliever territory for the hipster manager...damage has been done and he will keep the 2-3 late inning arms the cubs count on to close games out for tomorrow.

 

Would be great to either destroy them again or win a 14 inning marathon tomorrow to really crush their pen before their flight out of town.

[bigredrobbo]

Please Counsell, at today's presser, mention something about the guys taking offense at Hamels' comment yesterday, as motivation for tonight. He won't, but it would make my year!

Quintana is going I think......lefty

[FVBrewerFan]

They like giving Braun a day before an off day. Hard to argue with making sure he lasts through October. Thames about due for a start. Could be him at 1B, Grandy in the OF.

No way Thames starts against a lefty.
