Good grief … looking ahead to the Cubs I guess 

We need to make some roster changes

Baby bears aren't going to cooperate either tonight.

[willie key]

That Durbin scrappy quote is going to bite us in the ass.    Other teams are going to take it personally 

[willie key]

The one good thing about the pitching sucking is there is no reason to run Contreras butt out there every game now

[82brewcrew82]

So many three ball counts and so many completely non-competitive pitches tonight.

[OldHeidelberg]

Trap series for sure. Crap…

[folly412]

Can we go back on the road?  We play better.

[BruisedCrew]

Having the best record in MLB is no guarantee of future success.

Just ask the Tigers who held that post for quite awhile but have now lost their 12th in 13 games. 

[TURBO]

This is a good young Marlins team who has been playing great baseball.  This shouldn't be that big of a surprise that they are going after us.  Did everyone here expect them to just lay down and die? Their season isn't over yet.

Funny thing about baseball, when a team wins a lot of games in a row/stretch, they tend to lose some afterwards.

I hadn't looked through and read the thread so it may already be mentioned. Miami is 3rd hottest team last 30games at 20-10.  2-2 vs Milw. Bad timing for facing them. 

[Bulldogboy]

Brewers will limp into Cubs series and needing to make a couple moves to stay in it. Bullpen is urgent need.

[Bulldogboy]

I called for Hall two innings ago but hey it's never too late.🙃

[wiguy94]

I hope tonight was Quintana's last start as a Brewer. We have too much pitching depth to let a guy whose underlying pitching numbers are all pushing 5.00 start every 5th game in a division race.

[Bulldogboy]

The lack of power on this team is wild. Leon Broxton would look good in 4 spot.

I can't believe how good they are Rock even said he wondered if we were tipping pitches. 

[young guns]

I never trusted quintana.  Sad that he's proving me right to have not.  I don't know if we could even get anything for trading him, but I'd take some money savings if some tram wants to pick him up off waivers.

[yfinn6]

I think I could get Yelich out at this point. 

[Bulldogboy]

Can the media asks Murphy kids when is Contreras going to be dropped?

It amazes me that he was able to push the the on base streak to 30 with how bad he's looked at the plate this month

The issue is who do you move up? We have a lineup with basically 8 average hitters and Ortiz. It's not like there's some really good hitter we could move up in the order to push Contreras to the bottom half.

[Brian]

What ever happened to Bryan Hudson?  Is he even still with the club?

We need two bats

[kevinisaname]

Well, that was not fun. The Marlins are looking like the better team. I hope we can avoid the sweep against a tough pitcher tomorrow.
