Does Gasser break spring training in the big league rotation next season? Assuming we have a season.

Yes

miz, Henderson, Harrison, Gasser, Priester is my guess

Rounding in to playoff form

Can Yelich bunt? 

Even if he could, he's not that fast anymore.

[Jopal78]

Sure looks like the Brewers staff finally ran out of gas on August 31st. Since then it seems their starting pitcher either gets pounded or is out of the game before 5 innings just taxing and taxing the bullpen. 

[HarryDoyle]

The offense making sure Boyd throws a complete game.

[trwi7]

Offense has been so bad today the Cubs might not even have to use the weakest part of their team.

Said it yesterday, this team hasn’t played great baseball in quite some time.

The accordion player was just playing the Violent Femmes, odd combo.

[TwinsBrewersWorldSeries]

Feels like this will be a 3-2 brewers win on a walk off 2 run PH home run from Baiwes in the 9th

I would be fine with it called automatically, 

Umpires suck too much to ever get rid of it. There is no going back now. 

If they call a large strike zone or small strike zone consistently for both sides who cares?

The current system is just dumb and hardly any of the pitches challenged are outcome determinative. It’s more knee jerk garbage from MLB to ruin the game.

Have the Brewers ever hit well against Boyd?

I disagree.  I think the Brewers have looked fantastic at times versus the Cubs, Dodgers, and Braves… problem is, we’ll play 2-3 stellar games and then a couple stinkers

[TwinsBrewersWorldSeries]

The cubs fans in attendance just sounds incredibly annoying on the radio broadcast

Not consistently, that was my whole point. They played great in May.

They don’t though. And they didn’t before. 

[just_some_guy]

I thought that Hoerner shot was gone.

Teams shouldn't have to take half the game to adjust to whatever strike zone the umpire is using that particular day.

Didn’t they knock him around in Game 1 of the playoffs last year?

Wrigley North.

[ImissDougMelvin]

You notice the Cubs pussed out and didn't start Shota against the Crew in either series.

Only when he's pitching on 3 days' rest.

When don't they sound annoying?

[adambr2]

Yelich is toast, man. Murph needs to just stop getting so excited when he goes on some random somewhat hot streak for like 3 games. It’s just baseball. You have an entire season of data by now and the news is not good. 

[adambr2]

One hit from the top 5 of the lineup card. That won’t do.

[just_some_guy]

Cubs bringing in that Zeff-whatever guy.  He's been shelled lately so fingers crossed.
