    Big win. Feels like a theft.

    Thought last night that maybe Contreras was coming out of his funk, but the June version is back in full force tonight.

    I’m in a sour mood as it is, but does anyone else have a nails on chalkboard reaction to the way Levering always says “sweeeng and a miss”.

    He didn’t really smoke that first one. Looked like a soft line drive that he was jammed on.

    Starting Kuechel is like giving the opponent a 5 run head start.

    I think after he crossed the plate Adames said something to Chourio about not telling him whether or not to slide.

    It very well could be. It wouldn’t be the first time a team gave a veteran a look and let him go quickly.

    I strongly disagree that you want to make Yelich a full time DH and demote Hoskins to a platoon role. I don't think the improvement in defense with Frelick in LF over Yelich justifies having his bat in the lineup every day. Plus, the Brewers need the flexibility to use the DH spot to give Contreras days off from catching occasionally. Even though he's been slumping lately, I think it's way too early to throw Hoskins onto the platoon scrap heap where he might just play once or twice a week. He's a veteran player who has shown that he can get hot. As my preferred lineup for one game against a RHP I would rather have Yelich in LF with Hoskins as DH and Bauers at 1B. Frelick can still play a few days a week to give others a break. In a given week I could see Yelich, Hoskins, and Contreras each being DH a couple of days or getting a full day off. One thing for absolutely sure is that there will be some more injuries (even if they are minor) that will open up spots for others to play.

    Even though it worked out last night i did not like the move last night. With Chourio hitting well, and possessing much more power potential than Frelick I would have let him hit. In a situation against a very tough righty where just putting the ball in play is important I might make that move, but not there.

    Can they avoid the DP now?
  12. BruisedCrew
    I wonder if some of the posters.who tagged this as an easy series against a bad team are seeing why some of us are wary about it We’ve seen this movie in this park before.

    This week is going to be the supreme test of the Brewers pitching depth.
  14. BruisedCrew
    Maybe, maybe not. You never know if they pitch differently with a runner on first and one out as opposed to nobody on with 2 outs.
  15. BruisedCrew
    A crummy 2 run single.

    I think he said “first knock as a Brewer”.

    BP for the Rockies.
  18. BruisedCrew
    He’s not a rookie.
  19. BruisedCrew
    The Rockies should fear Rob Zastrysny He’s sure to shut them down isn’ee.
  20. BruisedCrew
    So we agree.

    It’s four games. Shooting for a sweep is fine, but after what happened there last year (when they were also not good) I would start with winning one and going from there.

    We had a fairly lengthy discussion about this in a thread earlier this month. There’s no objective definition of this, but I set the piling on point higher than 6. Even if 4 is the point where the winning percentage gets close to 50%,a few additional runs can significantly increase the winning percentage. They also can provide some cushion that allows the team to avoid using its top line relievers. But when you get up to 9 or 10 that’s usually more often than needed for a comfortable win and additional runs from there can pad the statistics without helping the win percentage. By having more games of scoring 5 or 6 runs and fewer of 10 or more and 3 or less, the Brewers have been able to maintain a winning pace while slipping in MLB scoring ranks.

    Coming into today, the Brewers were 11th of the 14 NL teams in runs scored in June averaging exactly 4 runs per game. That is below average. The pitching and defense have been largely responsible for the winning month. One thing the Brewers have not had lately is the big scoring games that skew the numbers. Today is the first time in 20 games that they have scored as many as 7, so they haven’t had as many “piling on” runs as they had earlier in the season.

    Let’s not get carried away. Im thrilled with what he’s doing but it’s not MVP level. Maybe Brewers MVP but not league.
  25. BruisedCrew
    Hendricks the Hypnotist has the Brewers baffled again. It’s amazing that the Brewers have won 15 games this month with as pitiful as the offense has been.
