  1. Acuna left tonight’s game after getting hit in the elbow by a pitch.
  2. That’s what I want to see from Yelich.
  3. I’m more worried about the Milwaukee team.
  4. I was afraid that bomb was going to hook foul.
  5. Yelich has not looked good the last few days. He had a couple of bloop hits yesterday, but not many hard hit balls. Hopefully just a brief lull after a hot streak because the Brewers can’t afford an extended slump from him.
  6. The Braves have not been good the last couple of weeks except against the Brewers.
  7. He hasn’t been THAT bad lately. He’s only had 4 starts since July 1, and his 2 road games were against the Astros (4 ER in 6.1 IP) and Giants (1 ER in 6.1 EP). Pitching confidently against one of the worst offenses in MLB I would expect runs for the Brewers to be hard to come by. He has a 2.00 ERA in 6 starts against the Brewers, including one earlier this year.
  8. It wasn’t 26 in a row, but Woodruff had a game against the Phillies a few years ago (2019?) where he gave up a solo HR around the 6th inning and that was the only “baserunner” for the whole game.
  9. That’s what can happen against the worst pitchers on a bad team. I get more enthusiastic about putting up 4 or 5 runs or more on a somewhat consistent basis than throwing up double digits in one game and following it up with a few duds.
  10. They have shown the last 3 days that they can contain two of. the teams with worse offenses than the Brewers. And yes I know the Rockies have a slightly higher RPG mark than the Brewers but when you include the Coors Field factor and the Rockies deadline deals it’s a terrible offense. After seeing what the Orioles did with an announcer that had the audacity to point out how poorly the Orioles have been against the Rays the last few years before this season, the Brewers crew is going to gush over whatever they can.
  11. I think it’s simply that they were getting Peguero ready when the score was 5-1 and since he was warmed up they brought him in for an inning.
  12. I’d temper that enthusiasm a little. Not a whole lot of proven major league hitters there.
  13. OK. That’s got to be enough. Just need 5 perfect innings from the pitchers.
  14. The Brewers make him look like the Cy Young that had 511 wins. Other teams make him look like the Cy Young that had 315 losses.
  15. No hitter alert. Not because I expect a no hitter but because the Brewers have no hitters.
  16. No, but “beaning” refers to getting hit in the head (aka the “bean”). Maybe that meaning has morphed into something different and I wasn’t aware of it.
  17. My initial reaction to the deals, which hasn’t changed from this week’s games, is that the Brewers effectively stood Pat while making a few minor deals that they could try to tout as helping the team. On rhe surface it looks like they didn’t give away anyone who figured in furure plans and did nothing to improve the dreadful offense. The Brewers hope for winning the division is pinned on Woodruff and Miley coming back and pitching effectively and for the bullpen to be nearly perfect when they have a chance to win a game 2-1 or 3-2. IMHO the offense is what it is and is never going to produce 4 or 5 runs a game on any consistent basis.
  18. Yeah, they used Payamps last night in a one run game in the ninth trying to stay in a one run game. He hadn’t pitched in a couple of days. If you use him today in a 2 run game (that much less likely for a comeback) and you’re probably making him unavailable for tomorrow night if they happen to have a lead. Even if you use Payamps and he pitches a scoreless inning you still have to cover the ninth. If you bring in your top relievers every time you’re within a couple of runs you aren’t going to have a bullpen late in the season.
  19. Fulmer strikes out Albies and Riley with the bases loaded as the Cubs try to move to within a game and a half.
