Piss poor offense. Piss poor defense. Piss poor pitching. Not a recipe for success.

Only two games left to get a win or the all time choke is in effect

It's not happening despite your trying to make it happen.

Frelick is good at everything. Complete player. Very impressive. 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Well, a frustrating first half of this one. Missed opportunities plus some bad luck plus some plain bad baseball.

Mostly, I just want to win tonight. I'm not worried big picture. You get in one of these ruts where you just need one big moment to kind of turn everything back around.

[Brewcrew82]

Terrible swing by Yelich.

You literally don’t know this anymore than we don’t.  It very well could happen.  
 

is it likely?  No.  Could it happen?  Yup.

If you mean by 99.9% chance, then yes we do know. 

We have some chicken littles here.

I mean...it COULD. But if you assume coin flip per game, with 7 games left, that gives you a 3.5% chance.

No. Actually you don’t. 

[Brewcrew82]

Why is Houser still in this game?

EDIT: Oops. Confused Milner for Houser for a second there. lol

[RWeeksFan23]

Whewwww, that last out was huge in getting me big money Houser recording over 14.5 outs today. Sports betting FTW baby.

You’re crazy if you think it’s a good idea to go into the last three games with this thing not clinched.     Look at how tight we are playing now and you have all this leeway.     Wait until you get to the weekend if they sleepwalk these next two games

the only way the braves are going to win a games is if it’s like 12-9.     They have literally quit until the postseason.       The cubs will average 7-9 runs this series

Okay, well we have a very, very, very, very good idea. 

Again, we have some chicken littles here.

Brewers pitching won't allow this situation to become a disaster however pressure will begin to mount the longer this drags on. I don't trust this offense at all and wouldn't be surprised if it comes down to Sunday.

The Braves haven't quit anything. They still need to clinch HFA.

Okay, I was fine not clinching in Miami, but I really don't want to wait any longer than tonight.

Doesn’t look like it is happening tonight.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

It's no fun to lose baseball games, especially when just one win basically makes the whole season a success. But this is definitely a case of good things come to those wait.

Patience. We're going to score runs this series. The Braves are going to score runs too. I'd bet a lot of money on those runs being enough one of the next four games.

There's also probably a better chance either of these two teams comes back tonight than the Brewers end up losing the next six.

And, even if they do lose the next six and lose the division, they'll get to go to Wrigley and make up for it anyway.

These are like the epitome of all-reward, no-risk games. At least as far as baseball goes. Nature of the sport.

While I still think they get it done I don't like the Jekyll and Hyde offense going into Halloween mode right before the playoffs.

That is not what you said. You said 3 games left and that was not true. Now you add a paragraph to what you said.

[Brewcrew82]

Would be nice to get some runs here. 

[Brewcrew82]

Guess we'll have to clinch tomorrow. Frustrating. 

[Bulldogboy]

Mikolas looking like Wainwright tonight. Cool
