Rockies (Lambert) vs Brewers (Peralta): 8/7/23, 7:10pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

The Rockies are in town. The Brewers haven't gotten the job done against the Nats and Bucs, they can't afford to repeat that performance against Colorado.

[Jake McKibbin]

Please let tonight be fun...

[wibadgers23]

Absolutely no excuse not to score a bunch of runs in this series and possibly sweep. The Rockies are bad. Really bad. That being said, we can’t beat bad teams so buckle up.

[Jake McKibbin]

They've also sold more than enough talent, its' a great time to face them with Cron, Grichuk and Brad Hand out, while facing some limited starters.

It's time to make hay

Would like to see the top of the order look like this going forward:

1. Frelick

2. Contreras

3. Yelich

4. Santana

Draw names out of a hat from there but Adames shouldn’t even be sniffing the top 4.

Not sure about Frelick, yet:

Well Brent Suter is back so maybe he will provide some entertainment and the return of the Jurassic Park theme.

He is ready, your OPS number is not correct, that is is OBP:

[Outlander]

Man, Frelick's walk rate is ridiculous. Should be a perfect leadoff hitter someday.

[wildcat2237]

The Rockies stink, the pitcher the Rockies are starting sucks. I think we are good for a whole 3 runs. 

Rockies 5, Brewers 3.

Ahh!  Don't rely on Bing -- that is the lesson here!

I really don’t see any outcome where they win this series. They are 3-7 in their last 10 games, they were very lucky to win Saturday’s game plus they can’t hit squat. They will continue to fight it out to the very last series this year to determine which one of the 3 teams make the playoffs in this division. My money is on the Cubs.

Fixed. 😉

Adames and Wiemer out of the lineup.

Adames needed a day off.

Both were due a day off.  I am hoping Wiemer starts to platoon more in CF.  Unfortunately his perfect platoon partner is currently injured in Mitchell.  I think next year we will see Wiemer and Mitchell platooning a bit more in CF.

Probably an unpopular opinion but I would like to see Contreras get a game or two off also.

Except for Taylor, this is about the best we can do, by the numbers.

Wondering if there was a sit-down with Yelich & he said he'd rather stay in leadoff. Of course that would assume they wanted to move him down a couple spots in the first place, which is a big assumption.

Frelick HAS shown a propensity to drive in runs. But yeah, leadoff would be a nice spot for him.
