The Brewers facing Jack Flaherty is one time when I miss Ryan Braun and his career 8-for-20 with 2 doubles, 4 HR, and 3 BB against Flaherty. The best current Brewers hitter against Flaherty has been Christian Yelich (8-for-25, 1 double, 2 HR, 3 BB).

Will be at the game tonight. Couldn’t have asked for a better pitching draw. Hopefully they make the 7+ hour drive worth it!

Have fun and tell us all about it later!

[brewmann04]

Just need one of the 2 to win the series

[BruisedCrew]

Expecting to to see the same lineup as last night with maybe JBJ for Cain if they think he needs a day off and want to give it to him today instead of against Lester tomorrow.

Love to see these kind of tweets from Cards fans……the grudging respect….

Both Stearns and Counsell should get the awards this year and you can’t change my mind.

[Soupbone]

Cubs up 6-1 over the Reds in the 6th.

[Soupbone]

Still 6-1 going to the 9th.

[jjfanec]

7-1 Cubs.

[Soupbone]

Reds lose

Thought this was kind of interesting when looking at Arenado's numbers the other day.

 

During his seven seasons with the Rockies he averaged +18 DRS per 150 games.

 

So far this year he is at +2 DRS in 115 games.

 

Rockies 3B (Ryan McMahon & Joshua Fuentes) are at +21 DRS.

 

Meanwhile, it seems like park effects are doing their job on offense with Arenado's 128 OPS+ so far this season virtually identical to the 129 OPS+ he posted during his peak with the Rockies from 2015-19.

[markedman5]

Sweet……win tonight and we are up 10 in the loss column.

 

And even a loss is covered by the Reds loss.

Good call

 

 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

I saw the O/U as 6.5...would totally take the over on that. I think the Brewers have Flaherty's number....plus, Cards seem to have the lineup that might be able to wait out Freddy. We will see. Hope the Crew wins 8-2.

Yep

[willie key]

Reds lose

 

 

No way. They lost a series to,these Cubs. Whoa

 

This is why I come to the In game threads. For,the good news!

Arrieta stayed hot today in his first start with the Padres. His ERA is now at a robust 7.13.

[BruisedCrew]

Let’s get some runs tonight. Can’t count on going to Boxberger, Williams, and Hader again. I even wonder if all of them are available to go for the third time in 4 days, especially Williams who they seem to be extra cautious about.

[trwi7]

Don't care that he's a Cardinal. I want to be Lars Nootbaar's friend.

[trwi7]

Everything about Yelich playing baseball right now is sad. He had to take a two second windup to weakly get the ball back to 2nd.

[adambr2]

Yelich has such a noodle for an arm.

[82brewcrew82]

Not an ideal start

[roadcrew3]

I have a feeling Yelich is going to be trying a different weight training program this offseason
