Hamstring spasms 

What the hell is that?     Did they already give him a scan?

I give him a seat of honor.

I just can’t understand how a veteran like Yelich has some of the worst looking ABs on the team. 

I keep waiting to hear it’s his back going out again, but all indications are he’s healthy. I suppose that’s better news, of course, but it is wild how bad he looks for stretches.

I'd invite any former Brewers player if they won a World Series. Bring back Joe Winkelsas for all I care!

Does the transitive property of WAR mean that Miz really deserves credit for forcing the issue?

I love seeing these threads get 15+ pages in -- puts me in the mind of brewerfan.net in the mid-2000s when we were (finally) starting to get good. 
 

Just can't believe 'Captain' Lou Palmesano didn't make it. Or David Krynzel.

Legitimate question…. Have we gotten more WAR from Andrew Vaughn than our entire 2019 draft class????

[Brewer77]

Murphy saw enough out of Yoho last night that he wouldn’t dare go to McGee for this inning lol

Can Ashby earn the save here?

I love me a three inning save.

[kevinisaname]

Ashby with the save! He looked much better these past two innings. BREWERS WIN!!!

Well earned.

[igor67]

No Mercy, Sweep the leg tomorrow.

[HarryDoyle]

Screw the series win. I want a sweep and a three game lead.

That would be Ethan Small and nobody else, who had -0.3 WAR, so I personally have more WAR than the Brewers 2019 draft class.

[markedman5]

He’ll,of a job by Ashby to save the pen

Yup. Is it a “must win,” of course not. Is it just as equally big as the first two were, yes. Don’t get complacent just because you won the first two.

I think someone said 6 from Priester and 3 from Ashby in yesterday’s game thread. Filling in for Hall but like opposite day. 😀

Just quickly looking through that draft I couldn’t think of anyone who made the majors other than Small.  Rough draft for sure.

[liveforoctober]

Another Priester start, another win and limited bullpen usage. Like clockwork.

Even at this point in the season the difference between one game and three games is huge.

Tomorrow is a massive game.    A three game lead is a huge dent in the cubs plans.    A one game lead doesn’t mean much

kets get good Peralta tomorrow
