Giants (Ray) vs Brewers (TBD): 8/24/25, 1:10pm
LouisEly replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Archived Game Threads
Gentle reminder that MIL is 9-0 against LAD and PHI. They can, and have, beat good teams. -
Giants (Ray) vs Brewers (TBD): 8/24/25, 1:10pm

If the Brewers go .500 the rest of the way (16-16), they finish with 97 wins. If the Cubs finish with 97 wins (will need to go 22-10), I will not be upset about them winning the division. They will have earned it. 97 wins is really, really hard to beat no matter how good a team is. Phillies just lost Wheeler for the rest of the season. They'll need to go 22-10 without him to get to 97 wins, and will need to sweep the Brewers the last 3 games in MKE to have any chance at the tiebreaker with MIL. -
As I have said twice now in other threads, that is a BS X account that has zero credibility. Whoever is behind it just throws crap up against the wall to see if anything sticks, and when they are wrong (which is 95% of the time) they just delete the Tweet. Pro tip - look at the account, see how long it has been around, and then look at how many followers. That account has been around for something like 8-10 years and only has something like 2,000 followers. And what the hell would someone with "NBA" in their title know about baseball?

Likely that they want to push Woody back and give him an extra day of rest. Last time out was the most pitches that he's thrown since coming back, and it was only over 4.1 innings so they were heavy innings. Would not be surprised if Patrick takes Mis's spot in the rotation and Mis is moved to the bullpen to mitigate his innings for the rest of the season. With 19 games in 18 days, they just can't have another planned short start that taxes the bullpen.
-
Given that he was just reinstated off of the IL, my guess is that was the plan.

That is a BS account. It's been proven many times. Whoever is behind it just takes random stabs at crap and then, when proven wrong (which is 95% of the time) deletes the tweet. The account has been around for like 8-10 years and only has like 2,000 followers. That tells you all you need to know.

They have a good-fielding major league SS to use as a backup. Brice Turang. And you can play that game with every position. Why didn't they get another OF to cover for injury (Chourio) or absence (Collins, Perkins)? Why didn't they get another SP? Why didn't they get another 3B, or 1B, or closer, or... You only have so many roster spots. And if people haven't looked lately, Monasterio has a wRC+ of 102 which, among players with at least 60 PAs, ranks 20th among all 49 SS in MLB just ahead of... Willy Adames.

There shall be no disrespecting the Brouhard

Have to wonder what the plan is for Mis's next scheduled start. With no days off that might be the biggest cloud hovering over the bullpen. Like you said, can't have another short start. Could be a planned piggyback with Rodriguez. Since Patrick was the extra man for the DH he can be called up at any time. Would not be surprised if the plan was to keep Mis in the rotation through the Cubs series, then move him to the pen to mitigate his innings. Was encouraging to see Gasser go 4 IP the other day, but it was only 52 pitches so he isn't ready yet. Barring someone going on the IL, Myers has to wait until September. Adding Mis to the pen also gives them another multi-inning reliever, which they could certainly use.

I'd say more like the inning with 3 runs on one hit.

WWE doing their best to alienate me. First, they move RAW to Netflix. (Nope, not worth the additional cost.) Now, they are moving all PLE's away from Peacock (which I paid $20/year for on a Black Friday promo) to ESPN's new streaming service... at $29.95/mo. Current cable subscribers can gain full access to the new streaming service after being authorized by their cable provider, company executives said on Tuesday. However, the company added, full authorization remains unavailable through select cable providers as ESPN resolves outstanding negotiations, meaning some cable subscribers will be unable to access content broadcast exclusively on the streaming service. Such content will be initially unavailable to customers of Comcast Xfinity, YouTube TV, Dish Network, Sling TV and Cox, the company said. https://abcnews.go.com/Business/espns-new-streaming-service/story?id=124772511 Of course, I have YouTube TV. And "cable" here in Denver is xfinity. And if it's like YouTubeTV "negotiating" with MLB Network, two years later I still won't have access. And what % of "cable" subscribers don't have one of those companies listed? Like, 10%?

YOU obviously have never been to Edley's BBQ...

If they give up a 7-game lead with 38 games left to play, they deserve to lose the tiebreaker.
-
All they need is one of the last two. To only give up one game in five H2H games is plenty acceptable.

Minutiae, Oddities, and Random Baseball Queries
LouisEly replied to Playing Catch's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Are you referring to the best 15 umpires at calling balls/strikes call the balls/strikes for every game? If so, getting in and out of a crouch behind the plate would be very physically taxing to have to do every day. They rotate bases to cover to give them a break from being the home plate ump. -
Well, he was on bereavement leave, so it's understandable if he's been a bit distracted lately
-
The Cubs sphincters must be so tight right now
-
Yeah, I'll take them getting Boyd out of the way against Patrick and punt that one. Their (arguably) best pitcher against our worst. Give them one, try to get to the bullpen as much as you can, and then get at least one of the last three games. If they get one of the two today and then one of the last two I'll be ecstatic.
-
They would have to send someone else down to call up Rodriguez. Patrick is the extra pitcher (technically roster spot #27) for the DH so they can't replace him tomorrow. They could send someone else down (such as Anderson) and call up an arm to replace that person. Payamps hasn't pitched since 8/16 so my guess is that he's in Chicago ready to be called up (with an Easton McGee DFA to make room on the 40 and Anderson sent down) for tonight or Wednesday if a fresh arm is needed.
-
This. They get an extra pitcher and they need a starter. Henderson is on the IL, Gasser isn't there yet in his rehab process, and the only other starters on the 40-man are are Patrick and Carlos Rodriguez. Patrick is unquestionably the best option.
-
#11 is if seats were sold to different people (or different partial season ticket packages) for the two games, who gets the seats for the doubleheader? My guess is that with how well the Cubs did the first half of the season that there weren't a lot of unsold tickets for the series.
-
I'll say it... Freddy Peralta = ace (Even if just for today)
-
I don't think the heavy stuff's gonna come down for a while
-
So I'm not allowed to have an opinion that differs from yours, even if I have stats to support it, because it's an "agenda post". Got it.

Myers this season: Pitch count 1-25: .632 OPS-A Pitch count 26-50: .900 OPS-A Myers was at 24 pitches.
