  1. I’d buy that for a dollar. Yes, I’m just bursting with movie quotes tonight, lol.
  2. First and third with no outs. I hate to think what I’m thinking…
  3. Which former Cy Young winner can the Dodgers trot out of the bullpen next?
  4. We really have to be a bunch of masochists to stick with the Brewers, year after year.
  5. Please score two runs. Pretty please with sugar on top.
  6. I hate Turner just a little more than I hate Suter. Let's look at this thing from a... um, from a standpoint of status. What do we got on the ball club that's good?
  7. Yup, the bullpen is so much better without Hader and adding in Bush. Poor Brandon Woodruff. Screwed out of yet another win by an incompetent team.
  8. I don’t know how the team would look, but we’d have been better able to address the issues that are just hamstringing us now. This franchise simply cannot drop big bucks on one player. I understand the desire to have that superstar, but we don’t have the finances to push all our chips to the middle on one player; when it doesn’t work out, the result is disastrous. Not only does that contract become an albatross when the player underperforms, it prevents the team from making any other consequential moves, save for trading one of your blue chip pieces for prospects. The Brewers have to draft and develop well, and use free agency to fill holes. They had the right idea with stressing pitching and defense (though the defense had been atrocious this year). But they’ve manifestly ignored hitting in the process. This team needed some sort of impact bat to spark the offense, and they got nobody. Our reality is that we’re basically going to have to pick good pitchers, develop them, control them as long as possible, and then watch them leave for other cities and collect the. Big paychecks. If ownership is unwilling to compete with the top annual salaries each year, we need to approach roster building in a different way, and we need to stick with it.
  9. So, we’ve now been shut out ten times this season in 114 games.
  10. Yeah, but that will be the Milwaukee Brewers version of “amazing”. We’ll make the playoffs, may even win a series. And then we’ll get bounced from the playoffs in excruciating fashion. I keep looking at the decision to give Christian Yelich a huge extension immediately after the broken knee as the major step backwards for this team. It was a colossally stupid decision to back up the Brinks truck before even knowing if he was going to suffer any long term effects, especially knowing of his existing back issues. The Brewers front office never learn from their mistakes. You’d think they’d be a bit more cautious after the boatload of money given to Braun. But no. They keep running up to the football, full of conviction and hope, only to have it mercilessly yanked away.
  11. Seeing the Milwaukee Brewers on the schedule is the salve for any bodily injury.
  12. “What is losing? Losing….is a disease…as contagious as Polio.”
  13. Yelich is now 0 for his last 22 with 3 walks over his last 6 games. He has 1 home run in his last 169 at bats. Whatever the issue, it’s looking like he needs a rest again, because his defense has been abysmal, and he provides absolutely nothing in offense right now.
  14. Sad that Burnes is going to lose because our offense sucks, and our overpaid “superstar” can’t get to a ball in left. I don’t think Burnes got outpitched by the old man. I think our lineup is filled with undisciplined hitters that can’t generate any offense when the ball doesn’t land in the seats. The front office has failed Burnes and Woodruff. What else is new? And the Milwaukee media will toss one softball question to Counsell after another in the post game, just like always.
  15. Grab a bat, Sixto. You may be 68, but you’d represent a stark improvement over at least half of our lineup tonight. ?
  16. The Cardinals bolster their lineup with two future Hall of Famers in Goldschmidt and Arenado. The Brewers trade their All Star closer for prospects. Therein lies the difference.
  17. We started 32-18. Since then, we’re 26-32, with a whole lot of those losses against terrible teams.
