Megill is one of the Brewers most valuable players

Forget the controversy around the Dodgers ownership. Is Attanasio allowed to own two teams like he owns the Brewers and Reds?

[edfunderburk]

Magic # is 13

[yourout]

Change that number..who do we got for 13?

 

[BCF]

Nice to see the offense pick up the pitching for once 

Good win 

[willie key]

I can get used to offense winning games 

but only for a little while 

[Yaz]

That is better.

Just more “set it and forget it” from the relievers. The bullpen is dominant right now.

Uribe/Ashby/Trevor/Jo-Jo-Hall etc is insane

Pratt & Lara are so mature for 21 & we’re fortunate to have them signed for 8 years

The top of the lineup has to be some sort of curse.    You move down yelich and Turang and they remember to hit.

I blame Murphy for not batting everyone 7th.

I’m not sure how superstitious I am, but my grandmother put some things in my head at a young age. 

I remember one time I was staying at her house when I was probably about 7. My grandpa and I were looking forward to spending the evening listening to a Braves-Reds doubleheader on the radio. (The Braves didn’t televise games in those days.). Anyway, we were so disappointed when the games were rained out,  so grandma says “See you bragged so much about your doubleheader ball game and that jinxed it”. 
 

One of her other superstitions that I never heard anywhere else was that you had to leave her house through the same door that you entered or it would bring you bad luck. So, if we came in through the front door but were spending time in the backyard, we had to go back through the house and out the front door instead of just walking around the house to the car

I think tinkering with the batting order that way is like buying a stock after it has had an upturn. By the time you make the move it’s time for a correction.

Roy Howell in 1982. 
 

Every baseball card I have of him in a Brewers uniform the number is not showing.

You're crazy lol. I noticed this weeks ago and have refused talking about it.

Unless you have insider information.

I’m so superstitious that I almost want Megill to blow up in a game before the playoffs to get it out of his system.   

[willie key]

Sanchez War is 7.6 and Miz is 5.3?   Is that right?

that has to basically discredit any use of that stat 

[adambr2]

I’ve always considered pitching WAR to be quite janky and not very useful, particularly reliever WAR. Trevor Megill having a WAR of 2 isn’t a good illustration of his level of importance to this team.

Position player WAR I think is much more telling but obviously imperfect as well.
