Did the Cubs win today? 

I didn't see any of the game live but saw some of the condensed version, and what I came away with was that I hope the O's play like that when we meet them in September. And they still won.

Stallings actually looked good

Harrison to the 15 day IL would have made more sense.  Let's make sure he gets some time off so we have him full strength in the post season.  But sure, send the guy with 3 scoreless in his debut down instead.

I thought of Harrison IL'ing too. In essence he'd just miss one start. Either way Stallings is probably down until at least Saturday though.

I believe if the IL Harrison they would then have the option to bring Stallings back. He wouldn't have been available tonight, so it gives them at least an extra day to evaluate Harrison and flexibility each day afterwards.

*** This is typically where I hope @sveumruleswows me with one of his HOF worthy stat compilation posts explaining to my old man brain how the Brewers have done it***

Haha, it's kinda funny because it's mostly just good old fashioned baseball that is getting the job done...

10.6 BB% (2nd) | 0.50 BB/K (3rd) | .337 OBP (4th) | .254 BA (6th) | 20.9 K% (7th) | +3.0 BsR (10th) | 43.5 Swing% (30th)

Even with their recent RISP fallow stretch at 245 PA (1st) of 67 wRC+ (29th) for 65 runs scored (13th) going back to June 18th, their seasonal RISP numbers are still at 1,059 PA (1st) of 115 wRC+ (4th) for 378 runs scored (1st).

With two outs? 1,154 PA (7th) of .744 OPS (3rd) for 178 runs scored (4th).

With two strikes? 1,856 PA (13th) of .520 OPS (11th) for 158 runs scored (6th).

Runner on 3rd, less than two outs? 243 PA (1st) of .899 OPS (11th) for 171 runs scored (1st).

Bases Loaded? 121 PA (3rd) of .894 OPS (6th) for 100 runs scored (3rd).

Against relievers? 1,608 PA (4th) of .738 OPS (7th) for 234 runs scored (6th).

Late and Close? 589 PA (3rd) of .724 OPS (14th) for 92 runs scored (1st).

High Leverage? 709 PA (5th) of .793 OPS (6th) for 198 runs scored (1st).

The Brewers have the 3rd fewest PA when trailing all season (1,108) but have gone ahead and put up a .718 OPS (10th) and scored 138 runs (12th) anyway. The Pirates (139 runs when trailing) and Reds (136 runs when trailing) are on either side of us but have needed 1,226 (18th) and 1,363 PA (12th) respectively to score a similar amount of runs when behind.

BaseRuns thinks the Brewers should be scoring 4.84 R/G with neutral sequencing, but with their high end contextual performances they have put up +46.78 RE24 (5th) and +3.95 WPA (4th) en route to actually scoring 5.09 R/G.

Here's a fun one for the Lift & Pull Generation, the Brewers have a 47.9 GB% and 26.2 Oppo% both of which are the highest marks in all of MLB this year.

Only 3 hits and 2 errors and the O's still won.

Pallante looks like a carbon copy of the guy we struggled against last night.  

[HarryDoyle]

Thank you for not swinging at that, Walker.

[Brian]

Vaughn only 2 home runs this year. 

[Brian]

Holy Crap what a move. 

[dlk9s]

Dammit, I was doing something on the computer and looked up at the TV to see the ball fly over the fence. YAY HOME RUN!

No, just a replay from a different game.

[igor67]

I believe Bauers was just invited to Dancing with the Stars

[folly412]

Another base gained because of Bauers' base-running.  In a weird way.

Am I in the Lift&Pull Generation? Or am I too old? I'm too old, aren't I.

Jake Bauers replay 

 

[HarryDoyle]

What was that umpire looking at? And he's the crew chief? 

[Brian]

Have a day Jake😁

[HarryDoyle]

Put this one away early.

[homer]

MOAR!!!

[Samurai Bucky]

Dillard’s “whoa” was perfect when Bauers made the matrix move

[igor67]

I'm all free a drama free evening

[trwi7]

Okay Bauers by name, Bauers by reputation was actually legitimately funny.
