2018-09-11: Brewers (Chacín) at Cubs (Quintana) 7:05 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 3-0]

[HarveysWBs]

Yikes, Woody. Throw some strikes here.

[adambr2]

I'm surprised Caratini has stuck for so long on the Cubs. He may be the worst player in the history of all professional sports.

 

So long? He just turned 25.

[wildcat83]

Alright boys, get the bats going.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

OK 3 runs to tie against this pen is doable.

[HarveysWBs]

Woody is fortunate Happ is utterly lost of late. That was a grooved fastball

[adambr2]

Well if we don't get it here it's probably not getting done. Top of the order coming up. Get a couple guys on and give Aguilar/Braun/Schoop a shot at tying.

[Brewcrewin07]

They lose, it's not the worst thing in the world...just gotta win tomorrow then, get the lead to 1 and get it to 1/2 Thursday when the Cubs face Mad Max

[topper09er]

If Chacin doesn't make that totally unnecessary and horrible throw into center field we get out of the 2nd unscathed and would not use Woody in a 0-0 game

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I remember De La Rosa getting shelled often as a Brewer all those years ago.

I was going to say "in the history of Sport, going back to Grecian times" but I didn't want to get carried away.

If it rained beer, I’d have liver failure.

Former Brewers great Jorge De la Rosa facing up against the Crew in a playoff chase. Things come full circle.

[MrTPlush]

It’s ridiculous to assume this game would be 0-0 without that throw. They still had a guy on 3rd with one out.

And mowing through the Brewers lineup. Because of course the Cubs can grab a crappy lefty off the scrap heap, and he suddenly becomes a lock-down late inning reliever.

[82brewcrew82]

Generally poor at bats today.

I always thought he'd leave MKE and go to STL and they'd fix him into a borderline Cy Young guy. Huge missed opportunity for STL back when they still had Duncan

[HarveysWBs]

I guess it was the cubs’ turn to be positioned perfectly on defense this night. That’s baseball.

[adambr2]

Very poor offensive performance today. How many times have these guys shut us out this year??

[pacopete4]

You’re right. We are probably winning 1-0. At least.

I know, the Brewers only grab guys like Chacin and Miley and turn them into good starting pitchers.

 

I could go the other way and say only the cubs can pay $34 million in salary to two starting pitchers who’ve given them nothing.

[adambr2]

As far as the playoffs go, tomorrow isn't a must win, but as far as the division race goes, it probably is. I just don't see a 3 game lead with 15 to play against the Cubs being overcome.

[John Jahahaha]

Those halcyon days when I hoped that JDLR could become a solid #2 starter for the rebuilding Crew.

[PinaMadness]

CC sending in the white flag pitcher.

[Fear The Chorizo]

What is Jennings doing in this game against the top of their order?
