2018-09-18: Reds (Lorenzen) at Brewers (Anderson) 6:40 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 3-1]

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

So you figure it will be Schoop, Pina, Santana, Granderson, Yelich, Braun. Hope that group can muster a few.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Cardinals and Cubs both winning, this isn’t good.

Beating good teams too. Meanwhile, the Pirates and Reds.............

 

It is getting to be pretty excruciating that the Cardinals just won't go away. That team scares the crap out of me.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Thames has absolutely no clue right now. Up there guessing every time he bats.

It isn't the Cardinals that are infuriating. They are doing what a playoff team should do this time of year. The infuriating thing is losing 3 of five to the Pirates and Reds and looking pretty darn meek in those three losses. If the Brewers were doing what they are supposed to do it wouldn't matter what the Cards do. Now it does.

[pacopete4]

Thames is a mental midget.

[shanedog19]

Just can’t take games off this time of year, which we appear to be doing tonight.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Offense should have stayed in the clubhouse tonight. They look like a completely different team than they did 24 hours ago. It's crazy.

Last night was the outlier of late.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Looking dire tonight. Never over, but looks like we will lose ground on the Cardinals at least.

 

3.5 out of the division is tough with 10 to go. Bit they will be 2 and 3 up on wild card no matter what. Still in a good spot.

You are 100% correct. Scoreboard watching while watching the Brewers offense lay an egg is just frustrating. Not getting any help from so-called playoff contenders this week is frustrating as well.

[jerichoholicninja]

Hey, might as well get Kratz in tonight. Need to make sure those legs are good and tired for the playoffs.

[Bulldogboy]

The fact that this team has to go on the road to play Pirates and Cards means this playoff spot business is definitely not in the bag. Reds were best hope to pocket some wins. Frustration.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Cardinals open up a 6-1 lead on the Braves. Barf.

 

Man, the Braves do not intimidate me at all. That team seems entirely beatable.

They shouldn't need help. If they do, they don't deserve it.

[pacopete4]

Tip of the cap to the guys in the pen tonight. Gave us a shot.

Agreed ... even several guys from the "gas can corps" came through. Now lets get some runs on the board so it isn't all for naught.

[Baldkin]

LET'S GO

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Gotta love Granderson's patience there. Gosh I hope that rubs off on some of these guys.

[82brewcrew82]

Prove me wrong tease rally.

[pacopete4]

Having Braun hit with two outs and the bases empty seems pointless too. Could have inserted him for Broxton.

[Ennder]

The Brewers have the 3rd best record in the NL since the all star break. It just happens that the Cardinals and Cubs have the 1st and 2nd best records.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Huge spot for Domingo here.

[TURBO]

Why is BA jinxing a Santana HR right now?

 

SHUT UP!

[brewmann04]

Brewers can thank both the reds and pirates as the main reason we didn't win the division

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

And ... 2018 Domingo returns.
