Well, Pfaadt looks a lot better than he did in the desert last Saturday night.

I would assume intensity and concentration is going to be down tonight

[markedman5]

Bats with the day after clinching hangover……lol

[HarveysWBs]

Time to swap out Miami and Chicago with AAA teams. Relegation rules.

How can Ohtani not be considered the best baseball player EVER ?

Babe Ruth

Ted Williams

Stan Musial

Hank Aaron

Willie Mays

Lou Gehrig

Ty Cobb

Actually Ohtani is #38.

 

[RobertCrawley]

An out but not a good play by Bauers.

It’s hard to compare him to players who play in the field every day.

Babe Ruth is the closest  analogy, but in a no DH era his best pitching years were separate from his biggest hitting years. 

Ohtani also doesn’t have the excellence for an extended period like players like Willie Mays and Hank Aaron. I think Ohtani needs at least a few more years to be considered the best ever.

Two walks to the bottom of the order. Surely this won't hurt us!

[kevinisaname]

Mona kind of sucks.

[Brewcrew82]

Monasterio why are you on this team.

[Bulldogboy]

Monteserio is brutal in the field and should not be on the Playoffs roster period. 

[HarryDoyle]

Mono is not good. He's the best player on the Diamondbacks.

[kevinisaname]

Yeah, Tobias was not very good tonight. He was behind and going deep in counts which is pretty rare for him. They had to get him out early.

[markedman5]

Myers lost it in hurry…….no help from Mono but 2 walks to the bottom of the order isn’t going to end well against this team

If you're a UTIL 7-8 games a month you can't afford to make mistakes like that. Half (or more) of his value comes from defensive versatility. 

[willie key]

Can we spend this last week and half putting other catchers behind the plate so Contreras can get some rest.   We have three of them 

bye is a pipe dream.   Do what you can to be ready for game one.   Arms and legs fresh

I can’t complain about our trades this year, which have largely worked out quite well, but I really wish we could have upgraded the utility infield position. That would have been really huge for this team.

Been brutal and not enough bat to make up for it.

[markedman5]

Sal continues to shine in right

[markedman5]

No matter who that wild card opponent is it’s going to be really tough……Mets are on fire

We're pretty tough too.

[adambr2]

Judging by their performance and preparation tonight, the Brewers don't seem to think they have any realistic chance of catching the Dodgers or Phillies.

They don't.

[RobertCrawley]

We'll probably see Pfaadt in the 7th too.
