Tomorrow will not be a must win but it will be close.

 

Come on now. They will be somewhere between 6.5 and 7.5 games up. It will not be close to a must win game. Not even within shouting distance.

 

It's less about standings and more about stopping loosing streaks. These things have a way of snowballing.

Every team goes through losing streaks. Tomorrow is not a must win game.

When’s the last time we were swept? Probably due for it.
"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.

Yeah, tomorrow isn't must win. It's just important to make this recent stretch a small bump in the road and not a prolonged losing streak that could let Cincy back in the division race.

The Twins are a team you should take two of three from and they're in danger of losing two already. If they bring this offense to San Francisco Monday, they'll get swept and things will get really uncomfortable.

Amazing how walks lead to runs with the crew.

 

On edit....would be really interesting to know what percentage of their multi run inning have at least one walk in them.

Maybe it's me, but I think what also is helping is they don't strike out nearly as much as they did in the past. Put the ball in play and good things will happen. Nothing good comes from a K.

I would think that is a large number regardless of the team.

but it's not like every guy suddenly forgot every piece of advice he gave

I would guess sir, that you are correct. OBP is a big component of scoring runs, or so they say.

Great half inning-Garcia looks just not interested in hitting today.

It just seems like every crooked number the crew puts up has a walk and or error.

I think the point 82brewcrew was making is that your perception is probably correct and that it's probably correct for every or almost every team. Walks = extra base runners = more and better chances to score.
