  1. It only took one game to remind me why I don’t waste a lot of time watching NFL games. It’s nothing but penalties. Between that and LeFleur’s ineptitude these games are unwatchable. Maybe the best thing for the Packers would be to miss the playoffs this year and clean house.
  2. There are several of those in this thread. Some of the things go back years and the same people make the same “witty” remarks multiple times in a season
  3. It really has picked up since the Braves series. In July the Brewers averaged 4.69 RPG which is close to the NL average for the season of 4.62 In August they equaled the NL average of 4.62, even with the help of the 22 run game, which came in the middle of a generally down stretch. But, in the last 15 games before tonight they scored 90 runs (6 RPG) without scoring more than 10 in any one game. Including tonight they have scored 6 runs or more in 9 of the last 16 games. That has kept the wins coming while the pitching cooled during the stretch of 16 games in 16 days.
  4. I was trying to figure out why the Brewers would clinch a playoff spot with a win tonight. I know that the Padres and DBacks having 3 games against each other guarantees 3 losses between them. If I have this right, if the Brewers would lose out and the Padres and DBacks would win out and the DBacks win 2 of the 3 against the Padres there would be a 3 way tie at 92-70. Apparently the Brewers would survive the 3 way tiebreaker, probably with the Padres.
  5. MLB needs some kind of mercy rule. This is crazy.
  6. So, my prediction was “hilarious” when it was for more wins than the Fangraphs preseason projection, not much different than several others on this thread, and one of the only ones made after hearing on the morning of Opening Day that Chourio was going to be out for at least a month with a broken hand. I wonder if any of the posters who projected Chourio as the team MVP might have adjusted their predictions after hearing that. I find it hilarious that you are so fixated on my posts that you would single me out even though you didn’t bother to take one minute to make your own prediction.
  7. What was your prediction? I didn’t see it here.
  8. I don’t know if that’s true and I know I don’t feel that way about it. The Brewers already have a significant leg up on the Cubs. They have already won 5 division titles since the Cubs won one in a legitimate season and number 6 is days away. They also won Game 163 in 2018 and the NLDS series last year. Beating them once more after dominating them for so long doesn’t add that much. But seeing them move on while the Brewers are sent home would hurt more than losing to the Phillies or Braves. And winning a playoff series against ANYONE is exciting. The Brewers haven’t had that many of those.
  9. I’m in the camp that just doesn’t want the Brewers to play the Cubs in the playoffs again. The playoffs can be stressful enough for a fan without the possibility of giving the Cubs and their fans the opportunity to say “we won when it counted”. Any one of the likely playoff teams would be a tough opponent. But having the Brewers lose to the Cubs would be the most painful.
  10. The Boomer
  11. The Crow. is going to end up winning this one.
  12. This reminds me of 2 of the games we went to when we left early with the Brewers holding big leads and Megill ended up having to come in to save situations. I remember Mc Cullers being responsible for one of those.
  13. I’m just guessing, but because they’re using fingers maybe they do it to avoid confusion between 2 and 3.
  14. Even if the Brewers lose now they took another year off Counsell’s life.
  15. Good thing the Brewers won yesterday. The team is looking pretty gassed.
  16. The Crow is waiting to put this one away.
  17. Megill was lucky yesterday, but not so much today.
  18. Another short start to strain the bullpen.
  19. I guess that’s one way of looking at it. But I think it is more straightforward to focus on the magic number with respect to one team at a time and reduce it as the Brewers win or the other team loses. When you start getting into multiple team scenarios it can get tangled. I remember last year there was some difference of opinion about whether or not the Brewers had clinched a playoff spot because of how 3 team tiebreakers work. In a 3 team tie the Brewers tiebreaker over AZ might not be determinative Beacuase this will most likely resolve itself within a week, I can wait until then to see what the situation is
  20. I think it’s 6 to eliminate the Padres because they have the tiebreaker over the Brewers and 5 to eliminate the DBacks. 89 Brewer wins plus 68 losses for both SD and AZ =157.
  21. One small good thing about today is that we won’t be hearing anymore that Megill hasn’t given up a HR this year. Fortunately the inevitable first one didn’t blow a game. Now I wish Schroeder would stop talking about how well the Brewers have handled The Crow this season. Now that he’s hit HR in consecutive games we can put that to rest until after the playoffs.
  22. How many years have you been following baseball? I’d like to know what makes you the authority to tell people how baseball seasons go.. A lot of posters here are willing to share enough about their age and backgrounds to provide an idea of what has shaped their perspective.
