September 2018: This is the most fun I’ve ever had watching Brewers baseball!

 

September 2019 Brewers: Hold my beer...

 

Second year in a row I said "Well at least they got us to packer season."

 

And then they immediately went on a massive run,.

Imagine where we would be without signing Grandal and Moose this year.

 

Great one year deals, and hopefully we get both back.

14 games over .500 and we secure a winning season!!

 

With win number 84, the 2019 Brewers move into sole possession of 13th place in regular season wins.

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

For anybody with a subscription to,the Athletic.....there is a great article on Lyles.

 

He basically gives all the credit for his turnaround to Grandal.........its great stuff.

If the Brewers don't win the division I should be banned. However, they will.

With the win last night the Brewers chance to win the World Series doubled! Up to 2%!

 

You are bad at this. The current odds of the Brewers winning the WS are about the same as the odds of making the playoffs were on Sept 1st (or whatever date the lowest odds were)

I don't know what you're saying, but I am pretty optimistic that the Brewers are going to keep this going through the WORLD SERIES GUYS

At risk of sounding like a huge NERD, that is one sweet graph.

 

What I find interesting is how favorable the Cubs odds were to begin the season.

Posted
That graph is a thing of beauty

Last season's graph was pretty awesome, too. I wish I still had that one saved to my computer.

The Cardinals didn't celebrate clinching a playoff spot today. Instead they're waiting to clinch the division.

 

You know who waited to celebrate until they clinched the division in 2018? That's right, the Cubs. they're still waiting.

 

 

Here's to a 2019 NLC Division Championship for the Brewers!!!

They did in very classy fashion with actual glassware...

Cheers to the start of a week long hangover for the Cardinals!

Not just “at Night” anymore.

IMO this is a way better way to celebrate rather than spraying it all over everything.

It would be wonderful if they ended up as a WC? :laughing

Why are there pictures of Cardinals tepidly celebrating in the Optimism Thread?

 

I mean...they have to know they're going to get their heads kicked in this week, in order to give up the Division title, right?

 

 

Amazed at what the Brewers have accomplished this September, especially after Yeli's injury.

The Brewers have defied the odds:

 

"Overall, the Brewers are 15-2 since September 6. In that time, they’ve raised their playoff odds from 5.6% to 97.1%. It’s one of the best runs any team has put together this season, and given the circumstances, it’s come from one of the last teams one would expect."
