  1. typical CC, chooses reliever based on what inning it is, not the score/situation.
  2. It is still only 20, occurred 6 times. The 20 K games by Clemens (2) , Kerry Wood, Max Scherzer, this one from last year and this one started by Greinke. The Red Sox have half of these as the pitching team, and offense teams are HOU, TEX, and SEA twice plus DET twice. Our franchise record is 19, perpetrated by none other than the Cardinals back in 2016...in a game started by Carlos Martinez
  3. Perez is playing LF. Already in the game. ah, I am trying not to look at the mlb.com box score because it is ahead of my tv
  4. Why do people think this? When has a former great with many millions left on his contract ever retired early and forfeited all the remaining money? Schmidt lost $500K by retiring and was on a 1 year deal. Braun has millions and millions of reasons not to retire early. He could hit .100 for the next 3 years and he would still stick around long enough to collect every last dime or force the Brewers to make the difficult decision to release him and still have to pay him. It simply doesn't happen the other way. Prince Fielder "retired" but still got all of his guaranteed money.
  5. Good point, and they won't even bat him 6th in the order!
  6. Because he occasionally sends guys who are out by a mile. No one complains about bang-bang outs at home. Since there is no stat for "average distance from home the runner is when the catcher has the ball" I don't think there is any way to measure Sedar's badness, but it "seems" (I admit again based on no hard evidence) he issues way too many out by a mile type sends.
  7. What would it have taken for the Brewers to DFA Robin Yount? Same answer for Braun. If anything, Braun would retire first out of self-respect if he was hitting .100 at some future all star break, similar to Mike Schmidt
  8. Lot of WI people buy 20 game packs, then sell opening day and some of these premium games for profit to basically cover the rest of their games. I see. Can you estimate the percentage of Cub fans in attendance? (sounds like a lot!) Don't worry about it
  9. Last year we would have lost this game in the 10th no question, let's see if we've improved
  10. http://www.bdcwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/SombreroTime_r1.jpg
  11. Let's go fellas, we are destined to win, according to wikipedia today is New Beer's Eve
  12. Tough matchup for Cain, he recognized the curve ball just a hair too late
  13. new pitcher coming in with the bases loaded, tie game. Only a Brewer could hit the first pitch back to the pitcher, can Cain surprise?
  14. Its not that kind of stuff, maybe Braun got fooled on a great pitch instead of a bad pitch, it happens. The problem is that he did not even swing at the previous pitch which was a very hittable, straight fastball. He should be up there trying to put the ball in play to take the lead, a different approach that most of his ABs where he should be trying to drive the ball. Instead, every single player takes the approach of trying to drive the ball every single AB, no matter the situation. Then Shaw guessing with 2 strikes instead of protecting the plate
