  1. The Cubs loss today makes me feel better about the Brewers having to play the next two days with the bottom of their pitching staff and a little shorthanded in the lineup. A golden opportunity to open up a real cushion.
  2. Exactly how Brewers fans felt around this time in 2018.
  3. He would not be back until the last week at the earliest.
  4. The Brewers have plenty of ticket discounts if you check them out.
  5. The Phillies are in a much bigger market and are playing a much more attractive opponent that will bring in some fans of their own and some Phillies fans who want to see the best team in MLB. Milwaukee has always been a tough place for attendance on September weekdays.
  6. It was great that the Rockies beat the Cubs last night. I have a feeling that will be their only win of the series. Any games they win in Wrigley Field next week should be considered a bonus.
  7. I assume you mean Rea, but I think you’re on the right track. My read on it is that Rea doesn’t go more than 5 innings anyway, so have Megill face the top of the order and to treat it like a late game situation and possibly pitch into the second. Then have Rea ready and hope he can get to the seventh.
  8. Yes. With their pitching they probably need 10 to outscore the Cubs.
  9. I suspect Rea will be in early enough tomorrow Houser is going on Thursday.
  10. Donaldson can still hit them a long way when he connects.
  11. Your job is to interview people off camera and then tell the audience what they said. I’m not sure how else you do that. I can honestly say I never thought anything about it until people here brought it up, and it still doesn’t bother me.
  12. Seems like a straightforward and quick way to describe what somebody told her.
  13. Bard has been the Rockies closer but he’s on the IL. Do you really expect the worst team in the league to have a lockdown bullpen? Counting on the Rockies for help is a losing proposition.
  14. I don’t think that’s really true about Burnes or any other ace typically being matched against the other team’s best pitcher. All teams have their rotations and for the most part they put out the pitcher whose turn it is. Maybe on Opening Day most everyone starts their ace but it doesn’t take long for those rotations to get out of synch due to off days, rainouts, some teams using 6 man rotations, etc.
  15. This is just what the doctor ordered to give the bullpen a break.
  16. Completely boneheaded baserunnjng by Bell.
  17. Hope it’s not an Achilles problem.
  18. Brewers OBP so far tonight is .762 (9 for 13)
  19. Two promising innings piddled away.
  20. They were up by 2 runs so putting the tying run on base would be questionable.
  21. OK, so that's a different measure just using a team's YTD winning percentage, where FanGraphs says they use the opponents' forward looking projections. If we're using Fangraphs to project playoff percentages it seems we should use their SOS projections too. Either way, the schedules are close, but the tougher part of the Brewers schedule is in the next two weeks, but the Cubs schedule is tougher in the last week using these measures, mainly because of their games against the Braves.
