Lol, my thoughts exactly. Has an elite arm in the OF, but terrible range, and that was a really bad route to that ball. Don't usually want to see postseason games determined by mistakes, but couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
Padres scare me. Hot team with a good enough offense to score on our pitching. You basically have to be winning after 6 or you’re screwed with the back end of that pen.
I agree every pitch would be stressful if he’s on the mound, but his stuff plays in October if he can locate it. That’s a big IF. Could also depend on who we play for determining the last 2 pitchers.
Team captain has nothing to do with performance on the field this year. He’s checked the boxes for on field achievements throughout his career and by all accounts he is a tremendous leader in the locker room. If people are complaining about this they are just looking for something to complain about. I get the negativity in the IGT’s as emotional reactions to live games, but the overall negativity on this board is crazy right now in the midst of the best season the Brewers have ever produced.
Complete lack of preparation and discipline so far. Biggest thing to me is the first play looked like a busted play where someone went the wrong way, I don’t think they drew up a QB draw. How do you have a busted play when they’ve probably known that play call for at least 24 hours…
I know I’m in the minority, but if the Cubs/Phillies stay in the 4/5 then I’d rather be the 2. Mostly for my own personal sanity of not having the emotional stress of facing the Cubs in the playoffs.
