Marlins (Chargois) vs Brewers (Peralta): 9/12/23, 6:40pm

[TURBO]

Can our pitching possibly be any better?  Wow!  What a joy to watch!

[markedman5]

Well this is interesting…….

 

[Bulldogboy]

Why not Rea tomorrow? Interesting. Houser Thursday. Things could get messy fast.

So a bullpen game? We've got the horses for it.

Can we get an article writer to do a breakdown on whether or not Josh Donaldson’s tepid reaction to the Willy Adames signature Gatorade bath tonight is a worrying sign for team chemistry?  Inquiring minds want to know…

The only thing I ask is we please bury all the dumb articles on some other part of the site instead of cluttering the forum with them.

I suspect Rea will be in early enough tomorrow  

Houser is going on Thursday.

After hearing Big Woo's comments on the Gatorade bath, it appears that not everyone is crazy about it.

[markedman5]

My guess is you will see Rea tomorrow…I would bet on it…they decided they don’t want him to face the top.of the order to start the game.

By not starting he could actually get a win.

Suzuki is just on fire. Tie game :(

Would it be too much to ask the Rockies to hold on to win this one tonight?

Yes. With their pitching they probably need 10 to outscore the Cubs. 

[Sixtolezcano]

Cubs tied 4-4 top of the 6th.

[kevinisaname]

We're really gonna need Arizona to win a couple of games 'cause it doesn't look like the Cubs are losing to the bad teams.

That sounds... less good. Hopefully he's right and comes back quickly, with or without a cortisone shot.

Cubs have a series with Atlanta too, but Atlanta has clinched, so don't know if they send out their A team.

[SomewhereInTime]

And the Rockies take the lead!

[Brewcrew82]

Pete Crow Armstrong is as good as advertised on defense. Could easily see him challenging Andruw Jones for the greatest defensive OF of all time. 

[RobertCrawley]

Chris Bryant, who I've hated for years. Thank you.

[Brian]

Yes Megill will start followed by Collen Rea is the way I understood it.

What's the thinking here, I wonder.

We’re preparing for our playoff strategy of starting Megill in two consecutive games and Joe Buck losing (what remains of) his mind.

Sometimes managers do this because the starter has a history of pitching poorly in the first inning. Can't recall if that's been an issue for Rea.

I’m hoping we aren’t getting too cute here
