  1. 5-game lead with all of September to play really isn't anything. Getting out of there tomorrow with a win would really calm things down. Perspective is a funny thing though. 5-game lead after losing to the Cubs 4/5? Panic? 1 game back after taking 4/5? Everyone would be amped up.
  2. It's not, but you wouldn't believe the Brewers would catch them, down 6 games at this point.
  3. That K feels big. I think we're gonna rally and take this one. Could not let them get the run back there.
  4. I think we'd still be batting. Until the end of time. I don't think we'd ever get out and it would be 900-3 by morning.
  5. I have more faith in the bunting than the ball being drilled 120 mph right into glove webbing.
  6. A few losses? One where we ran a B squad, one where Grant Anderson closed? And one yesterday where the pen sequence wasn't anywhere close to what it would be in a playoff game? We are seeing a break from an unsustainable historic pace combined with being able to use our bullpen in a luxurious manner because we have a large divisional lead. The Cubs have been throwing the kitchen sink at these games, we really haven't. We need to get some runs on the board and we shouldn't think we can throw this away because it isn't over. But it's really not that dire at this point.
  7. I think he was headed there this season regardless. Anything short of legendary numbers and I believe that was always going to be the plan. Woodruff, Peralta, Preister/Quintana are your SP in October.
  8. I think this is a pretty big game. We have a 6-game lead if we lose, sure. But this is really Miz going into the pressure cooker here, he has a real opportunity to silence some doubters as his novelty is starting cool off with injury/reality. If he gets shelled you can believe the troll brigade will be out in full force. It is the first big test of his very young career, a hostile environment, division race, playoff-like feel. All that stuff. A strong performance looks really good.
  9. If we don't win the division so be it. Means we choked or backed into the playoffs. At which point I'd probably be pretty hopeless that we do anything and numb to the pain. I think we'll end up the 1 seed. We have consistently been the top team since about the ASG. There are too many stats to support it, too much consistency...it's not like 2 years ago where we won a lot of games but it was hard to make sense of how. None of that means you win the World Series, but I think we'll have the best record.
  10. Not very likely. Phillies have a series with the Dodgers yet. I know people don't like to get confident, but the likelihood of the Brewers finishing behind CHC, PHL and LAD has to be infinitesimally small at this point.
  11. We have a 7 game lead and that should be ok, but it's worth noting we are 5-6 against CHC so snagging the next 2 effectively puts us 10 up. Going 1-1 makes that 7 game lead feel like a 6.5 game lead.
  12. Murphy needs to tread carefully here. You can't throw the farm at this game. The Cubs are, and are barely hanging on. Play this conservatively and hope for magic but this is the one we can most afford to drop.
  13. This one's turning out how I thought and feared yesterday was going to go, so I'm glad we already won a game. Just get 2 and I'm happy.
