  1. FYI, the retro caps had nothing to do with the Brewers alumni weekend. All 30 MLB teams were wearing old style caps from their franchise as part of Hall of Fame weekend. So, the Brewers were wearing the style caps they wore in their first year in Milwaukee in .1970. And, if you can’t see the difference in the colors and style of the Brewers capcompared to the maize and blue and the Michigan block M, thats on you.😀
  2. Yeah, when Yelich hits the ball at all it seems to be on the ground. In 30 PA after the break he has 13 K’s and no XBH.
  3. We’re putting our 7-0 record for the season on the line today. My biggest question going into the game is how many of Perkins, Monasterio, Siegler, and Hasse will be in today’s Sunday lineup. Yelich really looks like he could use some time off. I’m not sure If he’s hit one ball hard since the break. Giving Contreras a day off from catching would make sense too given that it’s going to be very hot and humid. I also expect Monasterio to replace one of the IF. It’s Salvage Sunday, but it looks like one of those series where one team has it and the other one doesn’t.
  4. It was discussed in yesterday’s game thread before the game. I expected tough games like the ones in Miami but didn’t expect the Marlins to outplay the Brewers so badly. The way they have attacked the Brewers pitchers I’m not sure I want to see what they’ll do to Woodruff now that have seen him once and have a book on him that they didn’t have in his season debut.
  5. Having the best record in MLB is no guarantee of future success. Just ask the Tigers who held that post for quite awhile but have now lost their 12th in 13 games.
  6. Yelich can’t even deliver a weak grounder to the right side when it would’ve helped.
  7. Feel lucky to get out of that ending with just the one run. The Brewers need to punch back.
  8. This has the feel,of a sweep like the ones the Marlins put on the Giants and DBacks in a recent road trip.
  9. The Marlins have really been putting the pressure on the Brewers in these two games. They seem to have men on base early in almost every inning while the Brewers have piled up weak ABs.
  10. They usually say that anything less than 80% is a net negative. And the Brewers have been significantly worse than that lately to drag their season percentage down to 76.
  11. I really want to see a win tonight because I don’t like the pitching matchup tomorrow when we’ll be putting our 7-0 season record on the line. Perez has been dominating in his last few starts and I expect the Marlins to have a plan for dealing with Woodruff 2.0 now that they’ve seen that he doesn’t have his his old fastball
  12. I think Yelich is one of the biggest keys to the Brewers staying near the top of the playoff standings. Every game I hope to see him line one into left center like he does when he’s on. Lately most of what we see is K’s and weak grounders to the right side Given his history you have to wonder if he is wearing down and notjust in a temporary slump
  13. The bullpen is going to be getting a lot of work the next few days with a short start from Peralta and expected short starts from Woodruff and Misioroski on Sunday and Monday.
  14. I don’t know about general streaming, but I did notice that the Bally Brewers live post game, which usually runs for 30 minutes after the game telecast, is scheduled for 90 minutes today. I hope that means that they will be showing the home run derby as part of the post game show.
  15. Not only are the Marlins not walkovers, but for the last 6 weeks or so they have been one of the best teams in MLB. Since hitting their low water mark of 25-41 on June 11, the Marlins have gone 23-12. Only the Brewers astounding 25-8 is better during that period. That 23-12 record is the same as the record of the Blue Jays who have used their hot streak to race past the Yankees, who have been 15-21. The next best records in the NL during that period belong to the Phillies, Cubs, and Dodgers who all went 19-15, 3 1/2 games worse than the Marlins. In their last 9 series the Marlins have won 7 and split 1 four game series. Their only series loss was to the Brewers, who managed to win 2 of 3 close, hard fought games. This figures to be another tough series. The Brewers winning 2 of 3 should be considered a positive.
  16. I watched most of the game on DVR delay so wasn’t around to comment at the time. Anyone who watches the Brewers every day can see that Yelich has been scuffling (“not seeing the ball welll”) for a couple,of weeks. He has had several K’s where he looks terrible and several of those weak grounders to the right side. Most of his hits have been of the scratch variety. When he bunted with runners on first and third and 2 out it was a sure sign to me that he is not confident or comfortable at the plate.. A bunt there is not as inexcusable as what Siegler did last night. But a confident hitter in the middle,of the order would be looking for more than getting a run in with a bunt.
  17. I suspect that the delivery of the Ashby baby was planned. Otherwise extremely lucky. He pitched twice in the Dodgers series, then took off. The team had Thursday off and his paternity leave was Friday-Sunday and then came the All Star break. He was back in LA the next Friday after an 8 day leave.
  18. Often the player has a different opinion on when he is ready than the medical staff and manager.
