I am a cubs fan that rarely posts on here for respect of another teams board, I will say that the brewers are a hell of a good team with a great chance of doing well come playoff time

The brewers suck

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Out a few hours. Not sure what's happening but Feddewap getting a start wasn't on my forecast.

Erick Fedde? How did we get here? 

Is this guy even ready to pitch.   I know he’s been pitching all year but we just got him today.    Ridiculous 

[kevinisaname]

Is Chourio supposed to be back for the Toronto series? I know he's on the rehab assignment, I just haven't heard when he's returning.

Cool.  We'll see.  Nestor Cortes' are also a fime a dozen.

I’m not saying you specifically, but there were people here that thought Cortes should fetch a pretty good return at the deadline.

I'm also not saying Cortes is this huge loss. I just don’t think there’s anything controversial or wrong about saying that with the current state of the pitching staff, he’d be a lot more useful right now to the roster.

None of that is to say Arnold doesn’t do a very good job in general.

He was really close but the hammy felt “tentative” or something like that in his last rehab assignment. So they might slow this down and be absolutely sure first, as they should.

The game threads are filled with negativity. One would think the Brewers are 30 games under .500. People posting the Brewers suck, the Cubs will blow by them, they are terrible. The other threads have reasonable discussion and good content.

I think the Cubs lost last night.So our division lead is NOT NEARLY ENOUGH WE'RE GONNA BLOW IT!!😫😩😉

We are required by rule to try to get 27 outs today and the staff is a walking MASH unit. Somebody has to take the ball. 

[Bulldogboy]

Hope McGee has 4 in him tonight.

He's still been in the lineup, so no physical setback that we know.  Just 1-16 in AAA with them not liking how he ran on that one hit (a double).

He looked tentative in person last night.  He had one AB where he stung one to left with a sound that got your attention.  Otherwise, Mike Clevenger and Bryce Wilson had his number to the tune of 3 Ks (I believe).  Then again, what do I know.

I just got the game streaming.  What is up with Sal?

He slid into the OF wall yesterday chasing a fly ball.   Was a little gimpy after he got up.  Probably a little sore today.

McGee's not on the IL, Megill is.  

I'm hoping Fedde can give us 5 or even more.  He's stretched out and although he hasn't been good this season, he did pitch a shutout over the nats back in May...

Well, good thing he’s not on it.

[adambr2]

I actually think Megill going in IL is a good thing. 

He clearly hasn’t been quite right. He’s clearly gassed. 

Rather than try to push him through, get him rested now and healthy for the most important stretch of the season.

Yeah, pretty much any guy out there can run into luck on any given day and produce 4-5 scoreless. I’m sure that’s exactly what we’re hoping for. We all know Fedde is just a bandaid that probably won’t be here in a month. We just need some reinforcements to help weather the storm. 

And hey, a win/win for him too since he’ll be able to get a ring after the season. 😁

[yourout]

Fedde throwing some fat ones but getting away with it so far.

[Zad Fnark]

So much for that "rubber arm", huh?

[folly412]

Yelly also throwing strikes tonight!
