  1. Sometimes I still can’t believe Christian Yelich plays baseball for the Milwaukee Brewers. He’s such an amazing hitter.
  2. Getting thrown out at 2B with the pitcher batting and two outs is so crazy inexcusable. What the heck? Just an awful moment from a strategy perspective.
  3. While I hold out a slight hope they can get to the final series of the season with an outside chance at the division title, I think the most realistic “best case scenario” is this idea of clinching the top Wild Card spot with enough games to have an extra day or two to get the bullpen pieces rested. The NL Wild Card Game is scheduled for Tuesday, October 2nd, so ideally they would have their playoff position solidified by that prior Friday or Saturday as RoCoBrewfan mentions.
  4. I really want the Brewers to put up a crooked number before DeSclafani gets pulled from this game.

  6. Along the lines of what we are already hearing, but from Fresno Bee columnist Marek Warszawski via Twitter...
  7. What did Vazquez say there before he said, “...and then I shut’em down.”? Edit: It was “You see why they call me nightmare? I give them hope, and then I shut’em down.”
  8. That insurance run for the Pirates looking really huge now... come on Crew!
  9. It’s not your responsibility to moderate the board. If you don’t like what another poster says, but don’t have a thoughtful counterpoint, then just move on.
  10. Maybe five more posts about Kratz will get CC to change his mind. Sorry mrs.kratz. my apologies. Knock this off. Both of you.
  11. Kratz put himself in a terrible position to have a chance at an out. I know you can’t technically block the plate, but you have to bet on the throw beating the runner there.
  12. Disappointing end to the inning, but the silver lining may be that they have Williams pitch count up to 55 after 3 innings. They don’t seem to be able to make solid contact against this guy.

  14. One of the issues with San Antonio seems to be political hurdles that need to be navigated before a new stadium will be built. The mayor has vocally opposed using public funding for a new stadium while it is believed the Elmore group isn’t interested in privately funding a ballpark. The mayor recently insinuated that the Elmore Group has failed to bring forward proposals for funding a stadium. Another issue is the current stadium is located in southwest San Antonio which isn’t as desirable of a location as something closer to downtown. The Double-A Missions have gone several seasons in which they had the lowest attendance in the Texas League. It seems like for San Antonio to move ahead with a successful Triple-A baseball venture they may need the Rangers more than the Rangers need them.

  16. Based on that swing I think Braun is feeling one also.
  17. Thought the same thing. Offense is going to need to win it tonight. Noce to get a break on the challenge. Looked simultaneous to me If it appeared simultaneous to the replay crew than they have no choice but to go with the call on the field. I thought Marte just barely beat the throw by a small fraction of a second.
  18. After the home runs the Reds had runners on second and third with only one out against Hamels, but Javy Baez threw Suarez out at the plate followed by a Matt Harvey strikeout.
  19. Agree, getting behind too many hitters tonight.
  20. Reds with back-to-back home runs from Peraza and Votto. 2-0 in the 4th.
  21. Reds up 1-0 in the 4th on a Jose Peraza HR... not that I’m scoreboard watching.
  22. If I am part owner of a professional baseball team I better get more than 15% off at the team store!
