2021-09-06: Phillies (Wheeler) at Brewers (Woodruff) [Brewers lose, 12-0 -- Despite loss the magic number for the division is down to lucky 13]

[yourout]

Norris is bad. He better not be anywhere near the playoff roster.

 

Glad we got that miracle win yesterday. Big picture we need to get the big 3 back on track. All seeing their share of struggles lately.

 

I would be okay if they DFAd him tomorrow

[jjfanec]

Oh well. On a positive the Reds lost so the magic number still goes down

[willie key]

Magic number drops again

 

13

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Haven't had many days where the Brewers, Reds, and Cards all lose. Shaping up to be one of those.

 

Another day closer to champagne.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Oh well. On a positive the Reds lost so the magic number still goes down

 

The Reds suck. They can't even beat AAA teams now.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Norris is bad. He better not be anywhere near the playoff roster.

…

Totally understand the thought behind acquiring Norris, hoping that a LHP could find it and win a role as a reliever. Thankfully, the performance of Ashby so far in August/September looks like Norris could easily be omitted from the playoff roster. Will be interesting to see who the last two relievers will be for the playoffs.

[SomewhereInTime]

Position player pitching with a 10 man bullpen is beyond stupid.

[BruisedCrew]

Second time in 4 games the Brewers have allowed 6 HRs. Awesome.

The Reds never were that great. Overrated starting pitching and a leaky bullpen. Bats have cooled down this they have cooled down. They still have a shot at the wc but they are not as good as a couple of the teams in the race

If you need a reason to stay optimistic today, the Phillies bullpen has a 4.47 ERA this season. The only worse bullpens among NL teams have been the Pirates (4.63 ERA), Nationals (4.87 ERA), Rockies (5.07 ERA), Reds (5.19 ERA), and D-backs (5.30 ERA).

 

It really looks like the Phillies have a horrendous bullpen, just terrible. The Brewers are trending downward this past weekend.

Yeah, because in baseball you can definitely tell everything you need to know about a team from their last few innings.

[markedman5]

If Box is going to have a bad day this is as good a game as any to have it.

 

Phillies can hit and wheeler seems to have our number.

[yourout]

Wonder what the staff ERA is in the 1st game of a series vs the other games?

[willie key]

The reds and cardinals are closer to the Cubs then they are to us

 

Hahahahahaha

Or maybe the last week.

[82brewcrew82]

Or maybe the last week.

Like when they took 3/4 from the Giants and 2/3 from the Cardinals? Massive downward trend there

[Joseph Zarr]

Welp, scratch this one off the schedule. On to the next.

[brewmann04]

Well I tell you I rather face the west than the Phillies they seem to have our Number. I really hate that we still have to play the AL Central which they have been terrible this season

[Pugger]

We got spanked by the Cards in game one a few days ago and then took the series. Perhaps history will repeat itself?
