2018-09-17: Reds (DeSclafani) at Brewers (Miley) 6:40 PM CDT [Brewers win, 8-0 -- Christian Yelich Hits for the Cycle, Again!]

[mtrebs]

Another cycle!!!

[stoutdude04]

Unbelievable.

[bigredrobbo]

Back on July 28th I said Yelich would be the next Brewer to get the cycle. Looks like I underestimated him! MVP!!!!

[mtrebs]

Yelich is amazing. Best pickup in franchise history!

[adambr2]

Are you freaking kidding me Yelich?

[owbc]

MVP

[markedman5]

How good is this guy?

[DuWayne Steurer]

I just have no words right now. Wow. THat's a word.

[bigredrobbo]

Chad Moeller's cycle was also against the Reds!

[pacopete4]

Yelich sure wants some hardware.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I remember a few arguments where fans said that the Cardinals did better trading for Osuna than the Brewers did for Yelich. Those sure are funny in hindsight now.

[Invader3K]

First player to hit two cycles in the same season, against the same team, if I'm not mistaken.

[Bulldogboy]

I have not seen anything like Yelich in this second half. He is 26. Peak years are 27-31. Goodness.

[dlk9s]

I really wish we didn't give up Brinson. Overpay.

[TURBO]

We needed an offensive barrage like this. Demoralize the Reds, make them give up and mail in the rest of this series... (wishful thinking)

[Eye Black]

[sarcasm]Hopefully this finally settles the Christian Yelich vs. Geoff Jenkins debate![/sarcasm]

 

I am just kidding, and not trying to offend anyone.

 

Yelich is like a gift from the baseball heavens.

[wallus]

Why is Yelich still in? (important topics to consider)

[homer]

That may have won Yelich the MVP right there. This year in particular I think voters will go for the guy that has a few stand out memories.

Posted this in another thread. These numbers are from before the game:

 

Since the all star game, Christian Yelich is...

 

4th in BA (.343)

1st in SLG (.700)

3rd in OPS (1.106)

3rd in ISO (.357)

[pacopete4]

Yelich is putting up early 2000’s numbers.

[TURBO]

Ji Mon Choi has been raking the past couple of weeks. Just thought I'd share. Another homer tonight.

I was just thinking, with a lot of everything else being pretty darn equal, Yelich has provided some really cool "moments" lately, which might just give him an edge.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Yeah, he's playing well for the Rays. Good for him, glad that he's somewhere that he can get some playing time.

[Bulldogboy]

Get Yelich off his feet Counsell. Jeez.

Yeah, seemed like a good dude. Just bad timing to get a real chance here.

 

I wonder what Brad Miller is up to?
