Casual 6 game lead over the juggernaut Reds.
"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.

Eighteen runs the last two games.

 

If the offense wasn’t so terrible we’d probably have like a six game division lead by now.

 

 

dear sir this offense is irretrievably broken. i read it in a game thread i think.

If Boxberger is hurt so much for the vaunted bullpen depth it’s all rookies and journeymen after Hader, Suter, Strickland

 

Also sort of ironic, the Reds bullpen is terrible and they traded of Iglesias in a salary dump before the season

Between this game and the Bucks game, this had to be one of the most stressful, roller coaster sports nights I’ve had in a long time. All’s well that ends well, but it’s going to take a little while to wind down.
Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

Reds' pen continues to be their downfall. Great lineup. Improving starting pitching. Pen is a dumpster fire.

 

I get the feeling the Reds and Brewers are going to be competing for many of the same relievers on the trade market. I feel much better about where the Brewers' pen is at, though, especially if Williams's injury isn't serious, and Topa comes back strong. Topa could be a hell of an August "acquisition".

Gustave is a keeper I guess

 

Needs a bit better command and probably a change up.

 

Seemed to be able to throw strikes. But yes, he only has one pitch. 97 with movement will play for a last man in the pen I suppose.

That’s massive getting the series win

 

Let’s hope Williams is out for just a small amount of time. We are going to need him now

 

 

Props to gustave. Let’s hope that last hit wakes Yelich up

Wouldn't be surprised if Gustave goes down(assuming he has options) just for a fresh arm too.
Remember what Yoda said:

 

"Cubs lead to Cardinals. Cardinals lead to dislike. Dislike leads to hate. Hate leads to constipation."

Based on who pitched tonight, it would be Eric Yardley. Scoreless in his last six appearances in AAA, so worth a rotation I suppose.

I don’t see peralta starting on any of the probables for the next week and a half

 

What’s up with that. Did he get hurt in the freaking all star game
