  1. That’s pretty common for home teams because there is no longer a chance for a save situation.
  2. I thought they needed a decent LH bat with some power before Yelich got hurt unless Mitchell showed he could provide that. Now that Yelich is out it becomes more important.
  3. Even when the Brewers have scored today they leave you with a bad taste. In both cases they still had the bases loaded and one out and couldn’t add more.
  4. I really don’t count force outs at home the same as other runners thrown out at the plate.
  5. Where are you getting that from? I wasn’t suggesting anything close to that. Today the opener gave up a run on 2 hits in the first inning and put 2 men on to start the second and forced Wilson to inherit a tough situation. Even you said at about the same time I posted that it was probably a mistake trying to squeeze another inning out of the opener.
  6. When you’re scoring one run a game you can’t afford to be giving one right back. But my post came after the opener put 2 men on to start the second They got away with trying to squeeze another few hitters out of the “starter” after he threw so many pitches in the first. Wilson got out of it, but I don’t think it’s ideal to have the guy you’re counting on to throw 4-6 innings have to come right in to a high leverage situation. I’m not a fan of the opener strategy in the first place, and in my book today was a fail.
  7. The opener strategy is a big fail today.
  8. Big opportunity missed, but I suppose we should be ecstatic about scoring one run against a Cubs starter.
  9. What was Steele thinking? He had all day to pick that ball up and still get Hoskins.
  10. 2 wins on this trip when scoring one run in 9 innings. Good to clinch the season series tonight with a bad pitching matchup and a stressed bullpen tomorrow.
  11. Even then I don’t like it. They just said something about how the Brewers are one of the worst teams in MLB at driving in runners from third with less than 2 out. Also why attempt a bunt that is probably not going to be successful to set up a situation that is probably not going to produce the result you want. Ortiz probably had a better chance of hitting a grounder through an infield that is moving around than laying down a successful sacrifice.
  12. Hopefully the wind blowing in will be strong enough for Megill to keep the ball in the park too.
  13. In Wrigley Field. And he wasn’t even in to give it up.
  14. The latest example of why I don’t worry about roster crunches until they actually occur. Something usually comes up.
  15. There’s the run..finally. Now can the bullpen hold it?
  16. No confidence at all at the plate. Squaring to bunt in that situation makes no sense.
  17. Good thing there were no robots on that one.
  18. 25.2 innings for Cubs starters against the Brewers this season in Wrigley Field Brewers have 0 runs on 10 hits.
  19. Brewers still looking for their first run against a Cubs starter in Wrigley Field this season.
  20. I think they’re showing a replay of last night’s game.
  21. With all of the slumping players a lot of posters want to see some changes, like Turang down and Chourio up. I’m never happy to see Frelick 5th
  22. Might be some delays tonight with showers and storms in the area.
  23. The Brewers may not have entirely given it away, but they certainly opened the door and let the Cardinals walk in. On June 30 they had a record of 57-44 and had a 4 game lead in the division. Yes, the Cardinals got hot, but the Brewers lost 15 of 23 to fall 6 games behind. The Brewers record now is 57-43, almost identical to 2 years ago when it was thought that at least making the playoffs was a near certainty. Hopefully this team can avoid the fate of that one.
