    Ashby giving you 3 clean innings defeats the entire purpose of him starting unless his 3rd inning clears the top of the order a 2nd time.

    Please don't take over another thread with this. You have your own thread already to do this. Please.

    Others can correct me if I'm wrong but the thinking behind an opener is to maximize your starter (Priester in this case) getting through the order twice. If the Brewers don't want Priester going through an order for a 3rd time (which has often been the strategy this season) ... and the top of the opponent's order has tough lefties in it - if you can get through that spot with someone else and avoid your starter getting into early trouble.. you can let him get into a rhythm against the bottom half of the order and cruise through innings 2/3-6/7. I would bet on Ashby getting 1 inning, MAYBE 2 if the 1st is really quick. I don't see a scenario that he pitches into the 3rd. We need him available in every game this series.

    If it were me I would not have an opener tomorrow and would just let Quinn do his thing. But I do have a few flashbacks of Suter in the first inning and I wonder if there is just a little bit of Murphy trying to protect Quinn from the first inning nervousness of it being a playoff game?

    Quintana has a ton of experience in Wrigley and in the playoffs. If we have a starter who won't be phased in a hostile environment... it is him. Priester's first taste of the playoffs, give him the home crowd. We shouldn't overthink this one IMO.

    This is the same conversation as the trade deadline. You can't argue one way without arguing the other one. What if we had traded adames for a third baseman that underperformed and we never ended up getting Durbin? That's probably a six-win swing and we are on the road right now in the playoffs. The what ifs go both ways..

    This seems like a great opportunity for Miz. Get his first playoff appearance out of the way in a relatively low pressure situation, so if we need him in a couple of days, he has less of a chance of being nervous..

    What are the injured list rules for the playoffs? If we sit chourio is he under the same guidelines as the regular season in terms of days or can he be available to us toward the nlcs?

    Joey Ortiz having two at bats by the second inning is unfathomable. Uecker is just messing around up there right now.
  11. liveforoctober
    Had you told me that Chourio was going to be our leadoff hitter to start the day I would have been really surprised and then had you told me that he would have a two RBI single in the first inning I would have had to restart my brain.

    I love baseball.

    Big deep breath Peralta. Lock in.

    Gasser over Myers isn't the question I don't think. We needed a 3rd lefty in the pen with the Cubs lefties. So Gasser was in consideration over Hall and Z? Miz/Patrick/Anderson over Myers would be the question.

    Random question probably not related to this thread or topic or convo.. Are we able to mute and delete threads from our feed? If I ever read a thread on my lunch break and think "that was a gigantic waste of time and I wish I hadn't used my few minutes to find some Brewers news on this silly convo and get talked down by someone..." am I able to get rid of this thread so I don't make the mistake of doing it again tomorrow? Just a random question for the mods unrelated to this thread..

    That might have been best case scenario. Had the Cubs won in a walk-off of some kind they would come in with a ton of juice. The fact that they nearly blew it and Counsell almost managed that one away is a good finish AND we probably get the worse team coming to us. Not excited for the 6million Cubs fans an hour away who now have access to our stadium ... but let's go. If this is truly the season of destiny ... this is what was supposed to happen.

    I saw Junis in with the Guardians the other game. Martin Maldonado is with the Friars.

    I was not at either of the two games you mentioned originally but I was at the Morgan walk off and the back-to-back HR last year. The Chourio and Mitchell home runs were out of this world fun BUT I have never experienced a euphoric deafness (if that sensation has a term) as the Morgan walk off. All I remember is hugging everybody and ending up one row in front of and about 8 seats to the left of where I was suppose to be sitting. It was kind of like a movie? The crowd goes crazy and the roar gets so loud it actually goes silent. Underwater like...

    So Taillon vs Darvish (is that accurate?!) tomorrow for the right to get Dudley Boyz 3D'd through the proverbial AmFam table, huh? I will enjoy watching that one..
  20. liveforoctober
    Padres have squandered a few chances here early. 1-0 should probably be 3-0.
  21. liveforoctober
    I want to beat the Cubs. I really don't want to lose to the Cubs. I very much don't want Cubs fans in Milwaukee... all of that together makes me pull fairly hard for SD... although at this point in the season it is a pick your poison scenario.

    In 77 PA on the season with MKE - Haase hit .229/.289/.357 with an OPS of .647 and an OPS+ of 80. In 78 PA on the season with MKE - Jansen hit .254/.346/.433 with an OPS if .779 and an OPS+ of 117 Jansen was brought in to be an offensive upgrade to our backup C position and despite a disastrous start ... is exactly that. "I can't for the life of me" ... so bottom of the 9th inning we are down 1 run with guys on 2nd and 3rd and 2 outs and Ortiz is up at the plate. Your options to pinch hit are Haase and Jansen. You're taking Eric Haase?
  23. liveforoctober
    I'm not advocating for Seigler per se ... but his inclusion allows you to pinch hit both Jansen and Bauers at will. Mona can go play 1st if needed late and Seigler can cover the infield and obviously he can be the 3rd catcher. Lockridge makes a ton of sense for reasons stated above but Siegler does open up two of the guys who have swung the best bats as of late to be available at all times.

    Will be a close finish it seems with us and Philly. We are in STL and SD and then close against a good Reds rotation at home. Phi gets the DBacks then a couple of cupcakes in the fish and the twins who will be playing rookies. Hang onto your boots friends. Would be awesome to get out of the Cardinals series still up 3 games on PHI!.

    Latz has been a bullpen guy for Texas all season .... only has started a few games now lately with injuries. 60-70 pitches is probably what he gets ... so if we have a bit of patience we should be in to the bullpen in the 5th or 6th.
