  1. The older I get, the less I care about all the drama and hating other teams, etc. I just want to enjoy watching my team. Also, regardless of what happens, at least we're not Phillies fans right now.
  2. And hey, if we can score something like 8 runs, we probably don't need to worry about who pitches.
  3. Start our ace, all-star pitcher on regular rest. Pretty simple. If it goes to a Game 5, now you can throw everybody you need to at home. I see zero reason to save Peralta for a possible Game 5. He's one of the best pitchers in the league - let's end it tonight.
  4. Chhourio is going to obliterate his hammy trying to score.
  5. Honest question, not a criticism: why is Lockridge starting?
  6. After that catch in left field, I thought it looked like he hopped a couple times, like it bothered him, though it could have just been him hopping. He was definitely limping after that ground ball when he headed to second.
  7. I never talk trash, but I'm certainly not talking trash or basking in the schadenfruede until the Brewers actually win the series.
  8. I would have said you were just inventing names.
  9. In the meantime, we get to enjoy the best team in Brewers history playing in the postseason with a 2-0 lead on the Cubs.
  10. I mean, look at the other side of it. Counsell started Turner at leadoff, he went 1-2, and the Cubs got out to a 3-run lead. Smart move that worked out well! But they lost the game.
  11. Well, yeah, if players don't play well, then the decisions the manager makes don't work out. I don't think the bullpen game was some "master class" move, but it essentially worked out the way Murphy intended it. Only allowed three runs total, got the relievers work, and won the game. I try not to be a "results-oriented" thinker (though I certainly stray a lot). I don't see Ashby's struggles as a failure in managerial strategy - he just had a rough couple innings. There was no reason to expect he'd be bad, as he's been fantastic all year and just pitched great the other day. The bullpen game was fantastic the rest of the way and pitcher usage likely wasn't much different than it would have been had Ashby pitched well. So instead of spreading three runs across nine innings, it was three runs in one inning (yes, I understand that scoring in bulk early can change psyche and strategy). And hell, had the ump been decent, Ashby probably doesn't walk the guy in the first inning and gets out of there unscathed. The part I question about the pitching decision was that had Priester pitched, he'd then be available to start Game 5 on regular rest. But now hopefully we won't need that.
  12. It's only fair when the Brewers are going to win in three, also.
  13. It's crazy how bad of a hitter PCA is right now. As soon as you get two strikes on him, just bounce one and he'll swing. Excellent center fielder, though. That catch he made in the gap was tough and he made it look so easy. I'm sure he'll figure it out at the plate - he was too good in the first half not to still have that in him. Just needs plate discipline (I say "just" like it's simple).
  14. My son uses Space Mutiny MST3K names for most of his online gaming screen names.
  15. I feel pretty good.
  16. Brewers have scored 16 runs in two games, but the former Brewers starters have stymied them.
  17. Happy dirt pounding.
  18. Thanks for the warning. Definitely don't want to see that.
  19. Chourio is definitely gimpy.
  20. Miz's off speed stuff was on point that inning.
  21. This should be interesting
  22. Both times, he hurt his leg running the bases. DH'ing him isn't going to do anything unless he strikes out every time and doesn't have to run.
  23. Do you honestly think they don't have a plan?
  24. I assume Chourio will not play tonight. As much as I want him to be on the field, they have to sit him until they are absolutely confident that he's ok.
