I didn't call that poster "triggered". Triggered is not even a noun. I said they were acting triggered in response to a simple "lol". 

Just leave it be at this point. I'm done with the matter. Name-calling isn't allowed, period.

Agreed, you should adhere to it.  Not that you have any say in what is allowed or not allowed here.

"Triggered" isn't a name. "Tool" is. 

I don't. But Brock and others do and they have made it clear that there's zero tolerance for it.

 So not done with it then?

[82brewcrew82]

Cripes, these guys hit everything.

[Joseph Zarr]

Just a real quick update FYI:

The T-Rats lead the first place Cedar Rapids Kernels 4-0 as we head to the bottom of the 7th. It would be a 4-2 series victory if they can squeak it out. 

More importantly, RHP Edwin Jimenez has a 3 BB, 10 K shutout and certain something going. His pitch count is at 82. If any of you have MiLB.TV or the ability to tune into the Brewers Minor Leagues you may want to see a chance at history. We're headed to the 8th frame. Jimenez will get a chance to start the 8th.

Alright, let's pull out a win. 

Man I hope we pull one out here today

I can’t watch - too stressful 

I want to “keep the Sabbath holy” 🤓

What, he's not good enough for the perfecto?

Now you  don't have to watch.

[Brewcrew82]

Now that was a bad pitch. Just get the heck out of here.

When they are hitting homers off of Hoby and Payamps it might just be time to tip your cap to the Braves.

Very glad we are done with them…….just a juggernaut 

[IntentionalHBP1]

I now know how reds fans felt about playing the brewers. Let get the hell out of here.

[82brewcrew82]

Now the hope is that they don't play down against the upcoming competition as they did earlier in the year.  A nice stretch to make somethings happen coming up.

Red Sox somehow took two from them earlier in the week.

Imagine having to play these guys in a 5 or 7 game series.

[Brewcrew82]

Go Dodgers.

Why we want to win the division.

You know, this Braves lineup mashes, no doubt about it, but one of the things you'll notice that makes them so good is their approaches. A LOT of first pitch swinging, something I have longed for Brewer hitters to do for many years. 

[82brewcrew82]

Cardinal sell off has started.  Hicks is gone to Toronto.

Good point.  A lot of good hitters that can also hit pitchers pitches.

[Bulldogboy]

Braves are hitting like they have help. I don't know that they are getting any but it sure feels that way watching. Imagine letting Freeman go and just picking up Olson. Lol. Meanwhile Crew still waiting for the next Fielder.

[82brewcrew82]

We swing at soooo many pitches that are not even competitive pitches.

They do have help.  Rea, Julio....

[JefferyLeonard]

I hope people have somewhat changed their tune about run prevention vis a vis having an actual competent LU after watching this series. It matters, it matters ALOT.

Not really.  Let's see what happens when we play a team not named the Braves.  But yeah, they still need to add offense.

[brewcrewdue80]

To think this team was 3-7 and struggling at the plate before just putting up 29 runs these 3 games. With 11 HRs.
