As you can see from the above graphic, Ashby absolutely mowed down the Marlins the last time he faced them. Burnes going deep last night will certainly help the Brewers as Ashby probably can’t go a full starters workload regardless of how well he does.

I don’t have a lot of faith in Ashby doing anything.    Maybe we will score some runs to today.   Brewers are 2-1 favorites today.    I don’t see it

Don’t worry, I’m sure Peralta will pitch today too.

Nats up 6-1 at the end of 2.

I am darin’ Aaron to

dish the Fish

into Lake Mich!

[Brock Beauchamp]

Nats up 6-2 in the fourth. While a Nationals sweep would be awesome, a split today is just fine provided the Crew takes care of business tonight. 

[wibadgers23]

The Nationals are running away with game one. Hopefully they save some of those runs for game two!

[willie key]

Well.   Nats should be able to hold to this game

[Brewcrew82]

Phillies conceding the game with a position player pitching after going down 13-4. At worst, we will have a chance to end the night tied for the final wild card spot with a win.

Also, the weather forecast doesn't look too good for getting the final two games in. May get tonight's game in, but tomorrow is a stretch.

 

[Brewcrew82]

Bad source, but I'll assume he's correct here. Phillies will be in Houston, too.

Unexpected result.   I didn’t think the nats would do anything this weekend

[treego14]

Willy Adames wants fans in the seats!

 

[willie key]

Just score some runs.   Don’t worry about the fans

[DuWayne Steurer]

there's nothing wrong with cutting a few minute promo a few hours before the game. players do this all the time.

Am hoping Peralta would be available for Tuesday. But yeah, chances are pretty good we'll see him tonite.

Astros throwing three consecutive bullpen games confirmed.

Thanks, Bob.

If the Brewers were serious about fans showing up for the AZ series, they'd go 50% off ALL seats, not some lameass offer of 400 level seats only.

They may not make as much at the gate, but if you double the fans on cheap ticket deals the last series, that is double the fans to OVER spend on concessions

Win-win..

Or, if they can't bring themselves to do half price tickets, offer free parking for the series.

I’m sure he will. Guessing Tuesday is a full blown bullpen day with Ashby/Peralta/etc and they probably figure Woodruff/Burnes will need to put the team on their back the other days to win the WC anyway.

[willie key]

I’m afraid to follow the game tonight.   This team always seems to blow any openings they get 

[Brewcrew82]

Gotta be competitive with your pitches tonight Ashby. Not too many wasted ones.

Are the Astros going to let their best players go a week without playing? I'd be pretty surprised if good pitchers don't get some innings, if not full outings.

[dlk9s]

I hope the Brewers win the game.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Awesome play by Jace.
