come to think of it, I wonder who is the backup at 2B with Ortiz out. that is likely the deciding factor here.

Sorry everyone, you're no longer allowed to post in real-time about your thoughts. 

You can, as long as its about unicorns and rainbows.  If not relax and have a solid conversation with your favorite Care Bear.

Vaughn maybe at third and Hamilton at second

It so weird. When the Brewers do dumb stuff people say dumb stuff. It makes sense to me in an in game thread but I know the Anntenasio family hates it.They are the only people who could possibly care what other people say that they don't agree with about a baseball team.

I guess what I would say is complaining about Gasser seems relevant when he is struggling getting pitches over the plate and complaining about hypothetical downfalls related to the trade deadline every time the team starts a game slowly seems not really germane to the IGT. But if everyone wants to piss and moan all thread about broadly general complaints I guess I'll stand down. Seems like it defeats the purpose of an IGT when you can discuss those types of frustrations in any number of other threads.

Yeah.    Their defense hasn’t been as stellar as it has been in the past.    It’s not terrible.   It’s just not elite.     We need more plays like that 

I had already edited my post to include the top 2 seeds. But you can’t get one of those without winning the division.

It’s unfortunate they weren’t able to keep Shewmake. There just isn’t much IF depth at the upper minors without him.

 

 

Maybe the Astros will trade him to the Brewers again. 😊

As opposed to what, incessantly telling people to relax and posting about who can post what.  That seems germane for an IGT to you?

Holy hell, yeah it was. Just skimmed the first 7 or 8 pages. Yikes.

The same person that posted that Jackson should be forever benched.

So, I got curious.  Last year on August 10th the Brewers won their 9th game in a row vs. the Mets on a walk-off Issac Collins home run, 7-6.   Their record went to 73-44.   Tonight the Brewers went to 73-44.   The standings at the end of that day in 2025 had the Cubs sitting 6 games out at 67-50.  With the Cubs loss tonight, they now sit at 68-50 and 5 1/2 games behind.  Pretty stinking uncanny if you ask me.

And to really top it off - Christian Yelich where the heck have you gone?!   This box score below is from August 15th, 2025.
