Game Thread (8/26/2022): Cubs (Steele) at Brewers (Peralta) - 7:10 PM CDT

[Jopal78]

A historically bad season. It’s been 85 years since the Cubs won a game and having just one hit.

Set the table for what? They had the table set several times today and did nothing with it. 
 

In that case keep him in minors the rest of the season. Yelich will do.

This isn’t the fault of our hitters everyone.  They’re super good, they swear 

[bulldogboy0733]

Jace Peterson should hit for Urias at this point.

Pitching letting us down once again!  CAN'T THEY THROW NO-HITTERS!

[Simba2020]

It'll be up to Keston to hit a homer to salvage another dreadful performance against the Cubs.

+1... If he has options Urias should be sent down.

Turang should hit for him.  The Urias/ adames show was cute when they didn’t suck at defense and at the plate.

[NBBrewFan]

Blind Squirrel found a nut!

[Ulice Payne]

There we go.  Rowdy in the 9th 

 

[Ro Mueller]

Thank you Rowdy. It’s 3:46am where I live. Win this thing.

[bulldogboy0733]

2 runs 2 hr. Don't ask us to hit a sac fly or anything else coach.

[SomewhereInTime]

There we go!  Brand new ball game!

[NBBrewFan]

Leiter and Hughes were part of the relievers that brought the Brewers back in the 3rd game of the last series in Chicago.  Hughes did his part, now Leiter can do his.

[bulldogboy0733]

Tellez has done his job this season regardless.

People talk like guys who have never played in the majors, and in some cases haven’t been in AAA that long, are going to come up and immediately replicate their minor league numbers. 
 

I’m not saying not to bring someone up, but expectations for them should be tempered. 

[Ulice Payne]

Huira legs it out.  Getting hopeful

Sure but you have potential there. Currently your season is sliding down the drain with a combined ops in center of 273. He can't be worse.

Not an all-star but very steady.

[Brewcrew82]

A bunt here would be very helpful, but it isn't going to happen, ughh.

I still think if he learns to swing at pitches almost exclusively in the strike zone he can hit .260-.270.  Just has too much reach sometimes

Brutal ab there that should get Caratini sent out of town. You have to hold guys accountable at some point. Little league worlds series kids could have hit a ground ball to the right side. 

[NBBrewFan]

Padres back up by 6 so the Brewers need to win to not lose ground.

Counsell took the bat out of his hands. That one isn't on Victor.
