Cardinals (Pallante) vs Brewers (Misiorowski): 09/27/26, 2:10 PM

[baseball101]

Turang got his. I would pull Chourio, Turang, Bauers, and Mitchell.

[edfunderburk]

Lockridge > Frelick for the final position player bat in the playoffs. That would balance the righty / lefty options for the OF & the bench. Both are excellent defenders. Lockridge is faster.

Sorry, I know this is a thread about the Brewers, but...are the Cubs crazy starting Imanaga in a totally meaningless game? They started Holmes Friday. 

That means neither of those guys is available for Game 1 on full rest? 

100 RBI for Turang!!

Okay, he's out now. Just throwing a side, I guess? Kind of weird, but whatever.

[Just Some Guy]

We're Brewers-ing them early and often today!

Not for me.  Mid 80's and Holloween before we see "cool".  Months before we see "cold" and shortyly thereafter it will be spring training games.

Interesting, where are you?  Good to see Brewers fans expanding across the map.

Probably going with Gausman game 1

So many aces acquired at the deadline, it’s probably hard to choose

I'm a Frelick fan but we don't need .230 in the playoffs.

Yeah, Gausman then Holmes, maybe?

September for Sal BA.190

OBP.239

OPS

.477

[Frisbee Slider]

Gosh, I feel like Sal has the sentimental backup outfielder role locked up based on tenure and likeability . 

[RobertCrawley]

Wouldn't be a Sanchez game without a failed ABS challenge.

Yelich?

[Yaz]

Well, at least this should be the last game Gary is behind the plate.

[RobertCrawley]

Of course, Yelich will be on the roster, but I hope he plays just in spots. I'm almost certain I will be disappointed.

[RobertCrawley]

Miz looks for comfortable out there. It's like he was born for this.

It seems to me that Yelich is enough sentimental for one playoff series roster

There's no room for sentiment when the Padres or Dodgers are in the other dugout during playoff baseball.

Uh, he is the CAPTAIN.

I know he will be on the roster. I was asking about the .230 average being Frelick or Yelich. It seems unwise to add both simply because they are such good guys. Too much sentimentality for one playoff roster.

Agree, he's a lock.  Was anyone else surprised Yelich only became the captain a couple days ago?  I thought he already was.  For, like, the last couple years I've thought that.

Because he was once great … 

[Just Some Guy]

I know PCA is a lock for gold glove in CF (and prob the platinum glove after that), but Garret Mitchell deserves to be in that conversation.  He's great out there.

I hope Yelich returns as a highly paid hitting coach next year
