some of you might be what the kids call h8ers. ?

Not a hater, just acknowledging that the Dodgers have a competitive advantage over the Brewers in that they can absorb salaries that Milwaukee can’t.  It gives you a ton of flexibility.

Oh by the way the Brewers have 3 hits tonight. That's the story 

2 HRs, BayBee!

Lamet is pitching for the Rockies in the last of the 9th in a tie game with the Cardinals.

That Adames hit should have been a HR.  If MLB was using the 2020 ball that is a HR but with the current ball it is just a loud out.  

Luckily both teams need to hit it.

That DFA right now sure is playing out to be quite a doozy.

As much fun as a root canal.

Root canal isn't as bad as it once was if you have it done before the pain in the tooth isn't too bad yet

And now ex Brewers prospect Bickford pitching in high leverage situation for a first place team.

He’s got an ERA of 5 but yeah. Hitting 97 mph is pretty good.

He didn’t throw that hard in his 2 games with the Brewers.

[MoreTrife]

At the point I'm not liking this team. Offense is absolutely putrid.

Surely we'll get to him then.

[magnoliacrew]

Of course it's Phil Bickford 

[bulldogboy0733]

I still don't get using your best guy in the 9th in this situation. Now you are looking at the 10th with men on and who Suter?? Good luck.

[Robocaller]

How many wannabe Josh Hader, long mullet MFers are there?

Worked out like you would expect. 

[Jopal78]

Why Taylor here? Isn’t Hiura the big homer threat against right handers or are they already playing for extras?

[Robocaller]

Does anyone doubt Bickford did weed when he was in the minors?

You don't have to burn two guys for D.

Because they want Hiura to reverse his reverse splits.

Because Frelick is still in Nashville.

He didn't play tonight maybe he is getting a call.

[Jopal78]

Man, Tyrone Taylor is the epitome of just a guy. 

[yourout]

Ugly ABs galore in that half inning.

Don't have to waste anyone for D, if the better offensive player ends the game.

Fitting for Phil Bickford to come mow us down. Who did we DFA him for again?
