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

[willie key]

Take him out.   He’s crap now too 

[Warning Track Power]

Legitimately everything about this team sucks. Can’t move runners over with 2 on and no one out. Can’t hit with RISP. Give up runs immediately afterwards.
 

This team is such a garbage watch and they wonder why attendance is down. It’s because it’s a garbage baseball team

It needs to be committee at this point.

Hoby Suter Sterlecki who else??

[MDCrew]

As soon as Happ came up I knew it was gone.

As much as I hate to say it, maybe a loss might be better for us, as it may force us to shake up the roster. We can’t win with the team as presently constructed.

That’s not happening. Stearns and Counsell have already made that decision.

Williams crying in the clubhouse when Hader left told you all you needed to know about him. He's not that guy.

Or punching walls. Set up guy is where he belongs. Or so it would seem.

In the old days the water coolers and locker doors would be taking some abuse after this one.

This team doesn’t have that much heart

[Simba2020]

At least they kept Peralta's pitch count down so he's fresh for the playoffs.

I thought the last two weeks would have shown them that but apparently they aren’t watching the same team we are

Don't worry they'll all be laughing tomorrow when they put a position player on the mound again so they can make sure save their 9 relievers for their once a week appearance.

The Brewers are terrible at hitting with risp, and the worst I've ever seen with bases loaded and nobody out, and can't score. As a matter of fact they just can't hit period. Trade the best closer in baseball and don't get one friggn bat to help the offense. Also the 5 pitchers they got stink. 

 Losing again, HR again, can't beat the Cubs at home, sigh,  

  They will never go to the WS under This owner, Dunsil, and Stine, same as usual, there the best farm team in the majors. 

[GoBrewers1982]

I am officially done! Not watching, listening or monitoring! Just disgusting !

[Warning Track Power]

Counsell has amazing body language. He has no answers either. Great job Skip!

[Ulice Payne]

Adames, McCutchen & Renfroe due up next inning, with Yelich on 2nd.  They've got a couple runs in them, don't they?

Only if Renfroe squares one up.

[Axman59]

Let's go Brewers! Clap-clap clap-clap-clap

[yourout]

Will now be 30 and 29 against teams below .500

[Axman59]

One swing and this game is tied!

[bulldogboy0733]

Adames not competitive.

[Axman59]

The Brewers can totally come back in this one.

One might think so. But how many innings with two runners on came up empty tonight? It just feels torturous to watch the hitting with RISP, even though the season batting stats show a .251 BA with RISP.

Another AAA Playoff ringer for Nashville.  He has options!  Nashville wouldn't even need to score 10 runs every game if they had pitching that didn't give up 8.

Hit a ground ball and they now have a run,
