    Yeah and I just took a peek at both remaining schedules to see who they play... and the Padres and DBacks close the season playing each other for 3, which is probably not great if we are trying to get both in.

    The Padres score 4 in the 8th and beat Washington. Wow! The Cubs are now 3 games up on Arizona for the 6 seed and only 3.5 games up on San Diego for that final playoff spot. Tailspin.

    That Burnes trade looks so different today than it did at any point last year and earlier this year..

    Or Murphy.

    I sometimes wonder what both franchises would look like if Counsell had taken the Mets job..

    Ironically/Unironically I think Frelick would do really well back home in Boston. They love the gritty Brock Holt/Dustin Pedroia hustler types. When Boston calls this next winter for their annual check in I'm sure we can pair Frelick up with someone to grab our next Priester/Harrison ;) In the meantime though, Sal is good Mitchell insurance in case he gets hurt. Lara should be playing every day that Bauers doesn't start though...

    Just popping in to say have fun and be creative in the magic number thread friends. Go Crew.

    Will be curious how Sproat looks out of the pen. Take away a pitch or two, turn up the velo a tick and throw strikes. I'll begin this journey optimistic.

    I don't care as much if people are negative, but avoiding derogatory language should be a standard everyone can adhere to.

    I trust the admins will take this seriously and you will get a weeklong ban for this.

    Interesting that Naylor gets his first start and will call (I presume?) Harrison's game. The guy on the staff we most need to recorrect... and he is in Naylor's hands today. I don't have an opinion... just interesting. Maybe Naylor can unlock something for him.

    I don't think I've ever seen someone walk and then take steps across the plate to "go back to his dugout" to remove his gear like Lara does. He does it often.

    Mental note that Sanchez is catching May once again. This is four of May's six starts.
  14. liveforoctober
    So I guess the 6 hole in our lineup is kind of like an oxygen mask on NFL sidelines. I'm requesting the last week or so of the season everyone takes a turn hitting in the 6 spot just so we are all breathing easy for the playoffs.

    Dang, that's actually a must watch for most of us. That's cool to hear that perspective.

    I took my dad to a Packers practice and there were Packers personnel walking around with signs saying "no photographs or video recording" which I thought was strange and a little annoying maybe. They enforced it by us too... whenever a phone went up you could hear them shouting "no recording please!" Then I just saw this... Jeff Hafley says fan training-camp videos helped Eagles vs. Packers The Eagles apparently sniped fan recorded videos of our installs for the opening Brazil game and I guess it helped noticeably. Which is wild and smart and scary and all of it. Good on 'em. Crazy.

    Maybe? He has made 11 starts each on the road and at home. Home: 7-1, 1.26 ERA, 8 ER in 57 innings, 78/13 (k/bb), 4 HR allowed, .86 WHIP Away: 3-3, 5.94 ERA, 33 ER in 50 innings, 52/16 (k/bb), 15 HR allowed, 1.58 WHIP He has yet to allow more than 2 ER in any home start. He has allowed 3 or more ER in 5 of his 11 road starts, including 4 of the last 5. His away numbers are definitely inflated because of the kids park in Vegas and then the wind game in Chicago ... so maybe it's no big deal, but those above numbers are drastic enough for me that I'm doing my best to throw him in Milwaukee.

    You know what's crazy? Eric Bitonti is crushing it in with the Rattlers, the Brewers are excited about him, and his progression has been more than fine since getting drafted. Cooper Pratt is in the middle of a pennant race as our starting shortstop. We drafted them both out of high school in the same year. Just a wild rise for Pratt and something not to take for granted. . . Also another note, the Brewers drafted 3 high school shortstops in that '23 draft. Bitonti (3rd), Pratt (6th) and 15th rounder Josh Adamczewski. The prep scouts were on one that year.

    Ah yes, thank you.

    Amongst all of the highs of the last few weeks - watching both Pratt and Lara step up with big at bats in pressure spots has been awesome. Of course it foreshadows positively for the future but in the now, combined with Ortiz, that bottom 1/3 of the order has been fun to anticipate each time through. It's a far cry from the bottom 1/3 we were throwing out there in May.

    I do think we should be doing everything we can to make sure Harrison starts at home in the playoffs. His splits are wild enough that we should make sure he is in a controlled and 'positive' environment. Henderson has more than earned the #2 spot behind Miz .. but it we get a 5 game series tomorrow I'd prefer we go Miz, Harrison, Henderson, etc If that means 10 days on the IL now so we can tinker with his mechanics and figure it out while also slotting him back into the rotation with the above in mind ... great.

    These jerk Cubs are not even letting us savor the numbers as they fall. We are moving too fast.
  23. liveforoctober
    I'm sure there is a copyright hoop or two they would have to jump through but this is the easiest $million the Brewers could make. Give Vaughn the rims, let him pitch. It will be on ESPN and reshared on IG and Tiktok within 24 hours everywhere and the Brewers can start selling Vaughn glasses. They would sell a bazillion of them.

    Joey O with a casual two run pop yesterday to keep Megill on the bench. Underrated. Miz to Megill would be lovely tonight. Random thought, is Andrew Vaughn the 2nd best two-way player in the league (min. 3IP)?
  25. liveforoctober
    I will be convinced both Turang and Pratt are ok when I see them in the lineup today. I know both finished the game yesterday but both had episodes of caution.
