Wiemer will have to change his hitting approach/style if he’s going to stick around.  Thank goodness he can play D

It's so much more fun to hit a baseball when you're moving and the baseball's moving. And the more things you can have moving before the swing the better. 

Keeping your head still and having a quiet approach it's so boring who wants that.

I would take the Brewers owning Kimbrel one more time....

[82brewcrew82]

All right boys, a bloop and a blast.  Just like we drew it up.

[82brewcrew82]

I fear Adames is on this team next year.  They aren't getting much for him in the off-season.  Maybe next deadline.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Boy, if the Phillies lose this one, those fans will have every right to be their bitter, bitter selves.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Anyone else hold their breath every time someone throws over on Perkins?

[82brewcrew82]

Got my invitation to the lunatic ball, and my friends are coming too.

[HarryDoyle]

The Phillies are doing everything to give this one away. The question is will the Brewers take the gift?

[BruisedCrew]

I wonder if we’ll be seeing Harper make his debut at 1B tomorrow. 

[82brewcrew82]

Was never a strike Owen.

[HarryDoyle]

Is there not another option on the bench better than Tapia?

If he keeps this up no way they bring him back for 10 million+ next year.  Turang has shown he can suck for the minimum at SS next year

[Brock Beauchamp]

Bah. Oh well, that game was much closer than I expected.

Adames has been so much better on offense than Turang...Been just as good, if not better than Turang on defense, too.

Adames, Winker, Miller, Tapia…..that’s #3-6 on a first place team.

He hits 3rd in this mess. Still maddening.

Have you seen the starting DH on this team?

[82brewcrew82]

I'm feeling pretty good about my 30 runs prediction in the Braves game.

Adames is still on pace for about 2.5 WAR this season. You absolutely bring him back in hopes of a rebound and even if he doesn’t, $10m for 2 WAR is decent value. 

[Brewcrew82]

This is ridiculous. Bring up Black. Bring up Urias. 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

No business winning that one.

Weaver got hit with a line drive in Cincy. I didn't see what happened, but he's out of the game in the third inning. It's 4-4. It is indeed nuts to be scoreboard-watching in July, but that Reds bullpen has really been worked hard since the break, and they already threw their best BP arms in losing the resumption of the suspended game earlier today.

He's on pace for a 3 fWAR season...

[jason21nl]

If Yelich doesn’t go yard and have 2 hits they almost have no chance at winning or so it seems

Exactly my point.

And much cheaper next year…. Like 1/20th the cost.
